Hi,
is there a simple way, I mean a utility that converts a windows package
(.zip file) to a Linux source package (tar.gz or even simply extract the
source code and Rd files needed to run successfully a R CMD check).
The windows package doesn't have any external lib, C code, etc..., just
plain R code, so in theory it is quite straight forward (extract the
code from the functions, and re-separate the Rd files from the man
directory.
Any idea?
No, no such utility exists as far as I know. But as you say, it should
be relatively straightforward to write one: the Rd files are
concatenated and compressed into man/pkg.Rd.gz, and the R files are
concatenated into R/pkg. You just need to watch out for comments in the
files that will be mistaken for separators.
