I was preparing a fix for a minor glitch in my optimx package and R CMD check gave an error that the title was not in title case. It is
A Replacement and Extension of the optim() Function R CMD check suggests the incorrect form A Replacement and Extension of the Optim() Function 'Writing R Extensions' suggests single quotes, i.e., A Replacement and Extension of the 'optim()' Function which R CMD check still complains about. I have found A Replacement and Extension of the _optim()_ Function does not get the complaint, but I'm not sure the underscore is allowed. Given that I've obeyed the RTFM rule, I'm wondering what to do now. On a related matter, I'm finding the reverse dependency check for optimx takes a very long time and sometimes stalls for reasons I have not yet sorted out. I run it in virtual machines for R3.2 and R-devel. Possibly optimx needs so many packages I'm hitting memory or disk limits. Perhaps off-list discussion could suggest a way to set up a reverse check server. I'd be willing to help on such a project, which might be helpful for many developers.
