In order to have a clean workspace at the start of each chapter of a book I'm "knit"ing I've written a little script as follows:

# chapclean.R
# This cleans up the R workspace
ilist<-c(".GlobalEnv", "package:stats", "package:graphics", "package:grDevices",
"package:utils", "package:datasets", "package:methods", "Autoloads",
"package:base")
print(ilist)
xlist<-search()[which(!(search() %in% ilist))]
print(xlist)
for (ff in xlist){
cat("Detach ",ff," which is pos ",as.integer(which(ff == search())),"\n") detach(pos=as.integer(which(ff == search())), unload=TRUE) # ?? do we need unload
}
rm(list=ls())


This appears to "work" fine in my system -- session info is below, but I get 30 warnings of the type

30: In FUN(X[[2L]], ...) :
  Created a package name, ‘2013-10-16 10:56:47’, when none found

Does anyone have ideas why the warnings are being generated? I'd like to avoid suppressing them. Here's the session info.
