bibtex::read.bib -- extracting bibentry keys
I have two versions of a bibtex database which have gotten badly out of
sync. I need to find find all the entries in
bib2 which are not contained in bib1, according to their bibtex keys.
But I can't figure out how to extract a list of the bibentry keys in
these databases.
A minor question: Is there someway to prevent read.bib from ignoring
entries that do not contain all required fields?

R package BibTex entries: looking for a more general solution
Back in 2010 I raised this issue, and there was some discussion,
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-November/058987.html
The goal, then, as now is to have a way to produce a bibtex-clean .bib
file (i.e., not requiring
manual editing except in unusual circumstances) reflecting installed
packages
for use in writing where one often needs/wants to cite all packages used

Making a package CITATION file from BibTeX
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to provide a CITATION file for my package nat.nblast [1].
I have the correct citation in BibTeX format [2]. How can I convert this
BibTeX to the format needed by R for a package CITATION file (I have a
lot of other packages needing citations ...).
I think what I need is the opposite of RefManageR::toBiblatex [3]. This
seems like it should be a common need, so I

R package BibTex entries: looking for a more general solution

Literature analysis
Dear all,
i am new in R. I am writing a review paper about batteries. However, i
am interested in analyzing all the papers by keywords, author,
references and year.
This could be done by "refviz" a software, which is only running on
windows machines and which is not free.
So my question to you is, is it somehow possible to write a script that
can do all of this work?
And if yes, with

file.system() in packages
Hello. R-devel, r61697.
I am having difficulty interpreting section 1.4 "Writing package
vignettes" of the R-exts manual. Specifically, I want to use
system.file() in some of my packages to locate a bib file,
uncertainty.bib, which is part of the emulator package. I only want
to maintain a single .bib file.
R-exts says: "All other files needed to re-make the vignette PDFs

Creating bibtex file of all installed packages?
Hi
is there an easy and fast way, to generate a BibTeX file of all installed /
loaded packages and R?
I know about toBibtex(citation()) to extract the BibTeX for a single
package, but how can I generate a file containg citations for all installed
/ loaded packages?
Cheers,
Rainer

Automating citations in Sweave
Dear all,
Is there an elegant way to add citations of packages when using Sweave?
Ideally I'd like a function which creates a Bibtex-file with the
packagenames as keys. The idea is to use \cite{packagename} or \cite{R}
in LaTeX.
I know you can get the Bibtex entry with
toBibtex(citation("packagename")). But after updating R or a package one
needs to update the bib-file too. When

Problems building package vignette: Sweave requires multiple passes to build document.
Dear R-devel,
Question:
How can I get Sweave to recognize that the \thebibliography section
is already created and generate the vignette pdf with a single pass? Or
is there a way to let R CMD build know that Sweave needs to be run twice?
If (1) is not possible, any suggestions how to auto-generate a
crude generic bibtex .bib file from my existing document?

BibTeX entries in CITATION file
Dear List,
While trying to define a customised CITATION file for a package,

both a text description and a BibTex entry for the package, as for the
'nlme' package:

Sweave, Bibtex, package references
Dear all,
I'm a big fan and happy user of the Sweave package for routine reporting.
From inside a .Rnw script, I'd like to produce the references in bibtex
format for each package loaded in the environment, write them in a .bib
file and load them back from the
\bibliography{bibliography} statement.
Is this feasible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,

R endnote entry
I know citation() gives the R citation to be used in publications. Has
anyone put this into endnote nicely? I'm not very experienced with
endnote, and the way I have it at the momeny the 'R Development Core

Dear List,
I am building a R package which collects ecological data about plant
species from both remote (web) databases and locally stored rda files

Useful books for learning the R software and the S programming language
any useful books for learning the R statistical software?
are they pricey?
and if the books recommended focus on S, how compatible will they be for
someone learning R?
thank you in advance for your help.
P.S.
specialized survey statistical procedures? Is R good at that?

R Books listing on R-Project
I was wondering what the criteria were for including books on the Books
Related to R page <http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html>. (There is
no maintainer listed on this page.)
In particular, I was wondering why the following two books are not listed:

Multilevel/Hierarchical Models*. (CRAN package 'arm')
