Hello Matthias
I too struggled with this for a long long time.
I'm not sure if this answers your question, but
Brobdingnag_1.1-2.tar.gz is clean under R-2.7.0,
and this package includes S4 methods for extract/replace.
Extract.Rd in the package doesn't use \S4method; also, I
couldn't figure out how to include a "usage" section
without R CMD check throwing a wobbly.
Extract.Rd is not ideal, but
seems to work in practice: the user types ?"[.brob"
and gets some support, but it would have been better
to have an explicit usage section too.
best wishes

Dear developers,
We want to use "\S4method" to document new S4-methods for "[" and
"[<-". We use this for other functions/methods and it works without
any problem, but in case of "[" and "[<-" we didn't manage to bring
this to work.
The problem occurs in the development version of our package
"distrSim" which can be found under http://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=87
.
The warning we obtain is
Bad \usage lines found in documentation object 'Subsetting-methods':
\S4method{[}{SeqDataFrames}(x, i, j, k, drop = FALSE)
\S4method{[<-}{SeqDataFrames}(x, i, j, k, value)
Of course, we tried several different possibilities but with no
success.
Does someone know a package which shows a use case for this
situation? I looked in several packages but could not found any.
Thanks for your help!
Matthias
