Dear list,

I would like to get into the habbit of creating a package for each
project. That way I can package my project-specific functions and data
together and load or unload that at will. Also, it will allow easy
navigation through all the functions I will have available for each
project, since I can then use ?myfunction and immediately see the
details of that function (esp. useful when revisiting a project after
several months).
Anyway, I have been successful in constructing a package, using the
package.skeleton. My question is how to easily update the package when I
write an additional function or rewrite an existing function. Do I then
need to again build the package fully, or is there an "incremental
update" option somewhere? This I can not find anywhere, maybe I am
overlooking something?


You can use package.skeleton with force = FALSE in order not to overwrite existing files. Anyway, I typically edit the files of the package directly, without using any helper functions. And if you add a new function, you can use prompt() to prepare a corresponding Rd file.

Thanks,
