Dear Ista,

Thanks for the suggestion. I've changed the comment function to feedback. 

Best,
Johnny

Hi Johnny,

I like the ideas here, just one small request. Please don't try to take over 
the comment() function! comment() is already a function in the base package, 
please don't mask it with yours.

Thanks for considering my humble request.

Best,
Ista





Thank you very much for your feedback either through r-help list or direct 
contact. It seemed that "Rinfo" could be a good alternative the package name.
