I'm not following something.  1 3 2 was what I was doing.  I thought you
said (below on Fri) that you'd do 2, then 3.  I may be misunderstanding
what the phrase "installed and loaded the package" means.  I thought
installing and loading it referred to doing an R CMD build to make the
package, and then R CMD INSTALL on the result.
