yeah, i don't find this a very elegant solution either... although R packages have exactly that, too. the information in the DESCRIPTION file is repeated in man/<package_name>-package.Rd in Rd format and in tendency the same problems are to be expected. i think we could effectively avoid e.g. by adding a comment to the XML version that it's not to be edited by hand but by calling rk.foo() only, like you find in some debian config files (e.g. /etc/resolv.conf on my system). > No idea why there appear to be problems with the XML package on Windows, > but given that this is a rather often-used package, I would hope that > these problems are temporary, and the XML package can at least be used for > non- critical stuff. Or am I too optimistic, here? don't know. all i can say is that i removed the dependency in june, and there's still no windows XML package in sight: o http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/XML/index.html as i understand the README info, this package doesn't compile without manual interaction, so CRAN cannot offer it automatically. for me this disqualifies the package as a dependency here. well, i'll try to write at least the paste() based function in the meantime ;-) viele grüße :: m.eik -- dipl. psych. meik michalke abt. f"ur diagnostik und differentielle psychologie institut f"ur experimentelle psychologie heinrich-heine-universit"at d"usseldorf
