Thanks Duncan (and othersin R-devel).

I clearly got away from this project, but I am still quite interested in 
resolving this issue and getting these codes into the CRAN.

Some attempts to repair the documentation have occurred in the intervening 
time, so I am including slightly updated error messages and the relevant tops 
of the Rd files, as requested by Duncan. See below.

Thanks again!

I am also getting a * checking Rd \usage sections … WARNING, but your message 
makes me think this is related to the above. JIC, here is that error message:

<<<<my "\usage section" Warning>>>>

* checking Rd \usage sections ... WARNING
Objects in \usage without \alias in documentation object 'commcorrelogram':
   ‘plot.commcorrelogram’

Functions with \usage entries need to have the appropriate \alias
entries, and all their arguments documented.
The \usage entries must correspond to syntactically valid R code.

<<<<my "\usage section" Warning>>>>


****comcorrelogram.Rd \alias and \usage sections****

\name{commcorrelogram}
\docType{class}
\alias{commcorrelogram}
\alias{mod,commcorrelogram}
\alias{plot,commcorrelogram,missing}

Those aliases look like S4 documentation, not S3 as the comment states.

\title{
   Community Correlogram
}
\description{
Function \code{commcorrelogram} computes community correlograms using either 
the multivariate Mantel statistic (Mantel, 1957) or the ANOSIM R metric 
(Clarke, 1993), and includes functionality for both directional analyses and 
combinations of temporal and spatial analyses.  Mantel correlogram proposed by 
Sokal (1986) and Oden and Sokal (1986). ANOSIM correlogram suggested here.
}
\usage{
commcorrelogram(sampleData, sampleTime = NULL, sampleLocation = NULL,
     LocationNames = NULL, option = 1, metric = "anosim", lagNumber, lagSize,
     lagTol, numTests = 999, anisotropic = FALSE, azimuth, azimuthTol,
     bandwidth, dipAngle, dipTol, dipBandwidth, distmeth = "bray",
     mantmeth = "spearman", adj = "holm", prog = TRUE, alternative =
     "one.sided")

# S3 method for class 'community.correlogram'
plot.commcorrelogram(x, y, alpha=0.05, …)
}

You should use \S3method{plot}{commcorrelogram}(x, y, alpha = 0.05, ...) (or maybe \S4method ...).



****comcorrelogram.Rd \alias and \usage sections****

****mod.comcorrelogram.Rd \alias and \usage sections****

\name{mod.commcorrelogram}
\alias{mod.commcorrelogram}
\alias{mod}
\title{
Community Correlogram Model
}
\description{
Function mod.commcorrelogram automatically fits a Gaussian curve to the 
significance plot of a commcorrelogram object and calculates the correlation 
range of the data.
}
\usage{
mod.commcorrelogram(object,Ch=1,Cc=5,Cw=0.01,plot=T,alpha=0.05
   ,alternative='one.tailed',pw=5,lgpos='topleft',...)
}

Again, use \S3method.


****mod.comcorrelogram.Rd \alias and \usage sections****

Dear R-devel,

I am a relative novice in R, but I am eager to post a new package my group 
developed in CRAN, but I am stumped by a set of documentation related warnings 
created by R CMD check.

So, my current plan is to recreate the documentation by religiously applying 
and modifying the skeleton codes that can be generated by R. In the meantime, I 
thought I'd post to the discussion group to see if maybe someone with more 
experience had some useful advice. Below you'll see a snippet of the key 
documentation warnings that we are stumped on.

lagSelect and mod are functions created by my group, as is commcorrelogram. My 
belief is that they are clearly documented, but I suspect that our novice 
source code and documentation is not quite hitting what R CMD check is looking 
for.

This message usually indicates that you don't have the relevant \alias{} 
defined correctly. If you do, please post the top of one or two of the Rd 
files, and we can tell you what's missing.  (I'd like to see at least the 
\alias{} and \usage{} sections.)

Duncan Murdoch


If anyone has advice on how to pass R CMD check, it would be greatly 
appreciated.
