Currently, writing R extensions states: "The ‘Package’ and ‘Version’ fields give the name and the version of the package, respectively. The name should consist of letters, numbers, and the dot character and start with a letter. " Now that _ is no longer an assignment operator, could it be added to this list?
Hadley, it is used as the separator between packagename and version number in the name of a package. And (at least my) code relies on the fact that there is exactly one "_" in the filename.
