Hello Duncan,
testci.R is a test function for the survival package. I compared the .Rout and
.Rout.save files by eyeball (I'm on a Windows 7 machine, so I can't use the
diff function). The only differences I found were in the file headers.
This is the header from the .Rout file:
R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13)
Copyright (C) 2011 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing
ISBN 3-900051-07-0

'citation()' on how to cite R or R packages in publications.
Type 'demo()' for some demos, 'help()' for on-line help, or
'help.start()' for an HTML browser interface to help.
Type 'q()' to quit R.
Here is the header from the .Rout.save file:
R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17)

As you can see, the header for the .Rout.save file is shorter resulting in a
difference in length of three lines. This appears to be nothing serious to
worry about, but the the testInstalledPackages function will be run by our IT
team (who has no experience with R) as part of the IQ testing, and I am worried
that they may be concerned by the 'files differ in numbers of lines:' message.
Is there anything I can do to avoid the message?
Regards,
-Cody
