I tried in vain to execute
R CMD install /Users/hoffmann/R/cwhmisc ('cwhmisc' is the package
name)
* installing to library
?/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources/library?
* installing *source* package ?cwhmisc? ...
** R

R version 3.2.1 (2015-06-18)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0 (64-bit)
Running under: OS X 10.7.5 (Lion)
locale:
[1] C
attached base packages:
[1] tools stats4 splines parallel compiler grid stats
[8] graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base
other attached packages:

Strategy of mine:
- search the net :
- grep for '\&' : to no avail
- remove ~/.Rprofile : no success (it contained only
'options(repos=c(CRAN="http://stat.ethz.ch/CRAN/"))' anyway)
- change CRAN mirror in .Rprofile : no success
- check vignette : nothing
- R CMD check --as-cran /Users/hoffmann/R/cwhmisc : Installation failed.
00install.out reads (also) Error : '\&' is an unrecognized escape
in
character string starting ""\&"
ERROR: unable to collate and parse R files for package 'cwhmisc'
What could be a way out of this maze?

That will probably succeed. Then try to install the tarball. That will probably fail with the same error as above. If so, make it available to someone else to try. Duncan Murdoch
