...g. Specifically commands such as example(layout) fail, even though there is a layout example. The problem seems to be that the example function tries to open (in this case) layout.show.R instead of layout.R. I think this is because the example function is looking at the first column of the AnIndex file instead of the second column. If one changes, file <- system.file(paste("R-ex", directory.sep, AnIndex[2 * i], ".R", sep = ""), pkg = pkg, to file <- system.file(paste("R-ex", directory.sep,...

Spaces are indeed significant in \alias, and the treatment of leading and trailing spaces seems undocumented. (Four CRAN package authors have made assumptions here.) As far as I can see this comes up in 3 places: 1) Writing AnIndex strips leading but not trailing spaces. 2) get_multi used to create @aliases strips both. 3) Looking up aliases in \link happens at both compile and (for [C]HTML) run times, and it seems never strips spaces. I think it would have been better to leave spaces alone, but I propose to consistently s...

...we might also reconsider the naming of the various index files. A simple idea would be to have an `INDEX' file in each directory where this is appropriate. E.g., we could have pkg/funs/INDEX (rather than help/pkg/INDEX) pkg/data/INDEX (rather than index.doc) pkg/help/INDEX (rather than AnIndex) or e.g. pkg/INDEX.funs pkg/INDEX.data etc. The package TITLE files would be used for building the package index of a library tree (LibIndex?) In any case, the `plain' indices to be displayed upon calling an appropriate form of help() could contain MORE than simply a list of things. I.e...

You are using the wrong make. Please read the instructions very carefully. You _must_ use the cygwin make with the supplied Makefiles. As INSTALL says: You will also need suitable versions of at least make, sh, rm, sed, (g)awk, mkdir, echo, cp, cut, diff, grep, egrep, pwd, expr and cat; we use those from the cygwin distribution (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin and several

I have R 1.9.0 running under Solaris 2.9 ona SunBlade 100, and am very happy with it. I heard about the stuff at www.rmetrics.org and thought it might be worth looking at. However, what I found there is a bunch of .zip files. The entry page suggests that there is some way to install packages from .zip files in R, but I have searched all the documentation I have and cannot find it. _Is_ there

I'm not sure if this is a devel or help question. I'd like to write an overview of a package, and have it show up when someone types library(help=mypackage) or help(package=mypackage) or even better, ?mypackage Right now, the first two give me a copy of the INDEX file; what I'd like to see is a longer description. Is it reasonable to write such a description into the INDEX
