Title case in DESCRIPTION for package where a word is a function name
...k suggests the incorrect form A Replacement and Extension of the Optim() Function 'Writing R Extensions' suggests single quotes, i.e., A Replacement and Extension of the 'optim()' Function which R CMD check still complains about. I have found A Replacement and Extension of the _optim()_ Function does not get the complaint, but I'm not sure the underscore is allowed. Given that I've obeyed the RTFM rule, I'm wondering what to do now. On a related matter, I'm finding the reverse dependency check for optimx takes a very long time and sometimes stalls for reasons...

Title case in DESCRIPTION for package where a word is a function namei
How about allowing underscore? (I believe WRE is silent on this, and I have not tried submitting a package with underscore in the title.) As I pointed out in my OP, _optim()_ works. And we have the advantage that we can distinguish package from function. The purpose of consistent editing is surely to provide the affordances that save us from needing extra documentation, as per Donald Norman's excellent discussions on Design of Everyday Things, or Turn Signals ar...
