The issue here is the incomplete deparsing of S4 objects in pre-2.4.0. I am really not sure you want to make a package this way: rather I would want the setClass etc calls in the package code. On Tue, 12 Sep 2006, Robin Hankin wrote: Hi R version 2.4.0 alpha (2006-09-06 r39158) MacOSX

Does R support demo names with spaces? I tried placing a file like My Demo Name.R in the demo subdirectory, and placing a line that begins with My Demo Name in 00Index, but R CMD check does not like this. It reads the line in 00Index as My, and it doesn't think there is a 00Index entry for My
