Region subtag in package 'Language' field
...g for the appropriate field to let package authors to declare the pkg documentation language for spell checkers. The most important case is to specify a preference between "en-US" or "en-GB" which can be used by the hunspell or spelling pkg to select the appropriate dictionary. WRE defines the "Language" field for documentation language, but from the current description it seems restricted to 2 or 3 letter ISO-639 codes such as "en" or "eng". WRE also mentions rfc-5646, which refers to ISO 3166-1 for region/country subtags but it is unclear if th...

proposal for WRE: clarify that use of S4 classes implies use of superclasses
If a package has importClassesFrom(P, C) in its NAMESPACE, then should it _also_ have importClassesFrom(P, <superclasses of C exported from P>) importClassesFrom(Q, <superclasses of C exported from Q>) ## and so on ... ? I think that WRE could be more clear on this point, and in any case I _think_ that the answer is yes. Notably, I think that this rule would resolve some of the problems with stale caches that I described in this thread from September: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2022-September/081971.html I'v...

[External] Re: Is ALTREP "non-API"?
...se to write R extensions has evolved organically over many years. The current state is certainly not ideal: There are entry points in installed headers that might be available; but to find out if they are in fact available requires reading prose text in the header files and in WRE. Trying to fine-tune wording in WRE, or add a lot of additional entries is not really a good or realistic way forward: WRE is both documentation and tutorial and more legalistic language/more complete coverage would make it less readable and still not guarantee completeness or clarity. We would b...

some questions about R internal SEXP types
Hello, I am writing an R/Go interoperability tool[1] that work similarly to Rcpp; the tool takes packages written in Go and performs the necessary Go type analysis to wrap the Go code with C and R shims that allow the Go code to then be called from R. The system is largely complete (with the exception of having a clean approach to handling generalised attributes in the easy case[2] - the less

I am not sure if I understand correctly, but if you were accessing directly the memory of SEXPs from Go implementation instead of calling through exported access functions documented in WRE, that would be a really bad idea. Of course fine for research and experimentation, but the internal structure can and does change at any time, otherwise we would not be able to develop nor maintain R. Such direct access bypassing WRE would likely be a clear case for rejection in CRAN for this...

From WRE: "Refer to other packages and external software in single quotes, and to book titles (and similar) in double quotes." Other non-English usage (as documented for the Description field; this inlcudes function names) can also be used in single quotes. Best, Uwe Ligges > > Ben...

Is ALTREP "non-API"?
...but I think it's a bit inconsistent with what Writing R Extension says. For example, src/include/R_ext/Parse.h got a comment "So not API," but the entry point R_ParseVector is explained in Writing R Extension[1]. So, I believe it's clearly an "API" both in the sense of WRE's dialect and in an ordinary sense. Which should I believe? WRE? The source code? It might be just a coincidence, but I'm sorry if my question drove the R core team to such a too-quick clarification. I just wanted to discuss how to fix the current inconsistencies. I think the R core needs...

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...

including data frames in R packages
...know if there is a size limitation on the data frames that can be included in R packages. I have a data set in a text file that I would like to include in a package I am building and it is 8.5 MB in size. Will this be problematic? Is the process for including data sets in packages documented in WRE?

some questions about R internal SEXP types
...ode for the details, anyway (e.g., at some very low level CAR and CDR can be any SEXP or R_NilValue, locally in some functions even C NULL). Internally, some C code uses C NULL SEXPs, but it is rare and local, and again, only the interface described in Writing R Extensions is for external use. WRE speaks about "R NULL", "R NULL object" or "C NULL" in some cases to avoid confusion, e.g. for values types as "void *". SEXPs that packages obtain using the interface in WRE should not be C NULL, only R NULL (R_NilValue). External pointers can become C NUL...
