Is there some way of automatically including the svn version number
of a package in the DESCRIPTION file or otherwise so that one
can check from within R which svn version number one has?
__
R-devel@r-project.org mailing list
Just want to clarify that it is the package itself that is being developed
under svn; I was not referring to the svn version number of R.

This functionality does seem needed in base R to me too but
in the interim you could create a package to make it available on
CRAN or if that seems excessive for just one function you could
contact the author of one of the multi-author packages and see if
they would include it in their package.
This may not be inconsistent with the documentation but it is
inconsistent with good practice. Wrappers should, in general,
set the default values, as the poster rightly indicated, and not the
values themselves. Its not a coincidence that multiple people

The readLines example, as written, does not work in sourced files and therefore
will not work in the Examples section of .Rd pages either.
Currently readLines does not process its input and I think it would
