Ben, Been meaning to write a short blog post about it as it also affects two (old) packages of mine. My favourite is to just rely on the Rd macros to the fullest, and I generally just hand-edit it -- no promptPackage() use.
See eg this side-by-side diff of the first of the two I need to update; the other may follow tomorrow. https://github.com/eddelbuettel/inline/commit/51d1ed2fbb5493b0cbc76d9bdf22beec7fe42ec9?diff=split#diff-c6be7fcd65260038f24d97252a80fef7 This should give you the old one on the left, and the new one -- which is essentially just references to DESCRIPTION on the right. As it is short, I include the new one (indented by three spaces): \name{inline-package} \alias{inline-package} \alias{inline} \docType{package} \title{\packageTitle{inline}} \description{\packageDescription{inline}} \seealso{\code{\link{cfunction}}, \code{\link{cxxfunction}}} \author{\packageAuthor{inline}} \section{Maintainer}{\packageMaintainer{inline}} \keyword{package} Hth, Dirk -- http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | e...@debian.org ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
