To reply to my own message, that function wasn't quite right. I think
this one works better:
signif.string - function(signum,sigdigs){
test - abs(signum)
left - nchar(trunc(test))
right - nchar(test)-left-1
if (test1) {left-left-1}
if (right0) {right-0}
if (sigdigsleft)
I came to report this same bug and found it already in the trash, but
I slightly disagree with that assessment. If it's not a bug, then
perhaps it's a feature request. Comments at the end.

Dear developers,
we develop our packages via r-forge and svn. Under R version 2.8.0 Under
development (unstable) (2008-06-02 r45826) I now observe the following
warning for our package distrEx

Found the following executable file(s):
Rather than transport quantities of the Introduction to R (a perfectly
sensible title for a very good starting point, IMHO) would it not be
simpler and involve less maintenance to include a link or
cross-reference in the 'formula' help page to the relevant part of the
Introduction? If nothing

Plaintive squeak: Why the change?
Some OS's and desktops use the extension, so forgetting it causes
trouble. The new default filename keeps a filetype (as before) but the
user now has to type a filetype twice (once as the type, once as
extension) to get the same effect fo rtheir own filenames.

Hi Mike, you make very worthy suggestions; but I assume the word

You *have* heard that R is a volunteer project, that much of its

Not sure if this is sufficient but note that if you leave the filename
off entirely then the extension does default to the type.
savePlot() # wmf
savePlot(type = jpg)
args(savePlot)
function (filename = paste(Rplot, type, sep = .), type = c(wmf,

It's easy to make mistakes in this, but a little outside-of-R
experimentation suggests those are the right answers. The number 12345 is
exactly representable, so it is exactly half-way between 12340 and 12350, so
12340 is the right answer

Dirk,
Thanks for the helpful reply. I agree with the concept of testing an app
that is commonly used. I suppose someone who uses R to interface alot with a
database could have a very differnt experience that one who uses it mostly
for matrix manupulations.
Still, as a scientist I like to have
