I would recommend having a separate vignette that uses toy data, if that is all that is available, that demonstrates the basic use of the package. A consider part of the value of a package vignette, IMHO, is having something that (i) the user can run interactively on their own, and (ii) can be automatically checked. Your current vignette can be included as pdf (the Rnw could live in another place under inst/). You might also look at the vsn package in Bioconductor which uses a Makefile to avoid R CMD check from building its vignette because it is too time consuming... + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center http://bioconductor.org ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
