Version 2.5.1 of 'mvbutils' is now on CRAN. This version offers improved
support for easy package preparation and maintenance, plus minor changes
required by the new version of the 'debug' package (see separate
announcement). Package 'mvbutils' offers the following main features, as
well as a number of miscellaneous goodies:
- Hierarchical organization of projects (tasks) and sub-tasks, allowing
switching within a single R session, searching and moving objects through the
hierarchy, objects in ancestor tasks always visible from child (sub)tasks, etc.
- Improved function & text-object editing facilities, plain-text
documentation stored with function definition, and automatic backup.
- Automated package construction, including production of Rd-format from plain
text documentation. Packages can be edited & updated seamlessly while
loaded, without needing to unload/quit/rebuild/reinstall.
- "Lazy loading" for individual objects, allowing fast and
transparent access to collections of biggish objects where only a few objects
are used at a time.
