First of all, thanks to those who've set up R to work so smoothly with Miktex-- even a total Latex bunny like me got it to work instantly, so that for the first time I'm able to run my Rd files through the Latex side of RCMD CHECK.
Now the question/buglet. One of my Rd files contains the following: \code{mlazy( <<objname1>>, <<objname2>>, <<etc>>)} When I run the file through RCMD (either RCMD CHECK or Rcmd Rd2dvi --pdf) the first << and >> are left alone, but the second and third pairs are converted to single guillemot characters (i.e. European quotation marks). This inconsistency seems a bit odd. Also, is there any way of getting RCMD to leave << and >> alone-- i.e. not to guillemotize them? They cause unrecognized characters on my (Windows XP, newly-installed Miktex, R-alpha of 10/9/2005) system when I run the dvi files through dvips.
