Hi,
is there a simple way, I mean a utility that converts a windows package
(.zip file) to a Linux source package (tar.gz or even simply extract the
source code and Rd files needed to run successfully a R CMD check).
The windows package doesn't have any external lib, C code, etc..., just
plain R code, so in theory it is quite straight forward (extract the code
from the functions, and re-separate the Rd files from the man directory.
Any idea?
No, no such utility exists as far as I know. But as you say, it should be
relatively straightforward to write one: the Rd files are concatenated and
compressed into man/pkg.Rd.gz, and the R files are concatenated into R/pkg.
Not if lazy-loading is used (and it normally is). But what really is
wrong with Roger Koenker's suggestion: 'unzip -a' the .zip into a library
directory? It will most likely work (the reverse does: zip up on Linux,
unzip on Windows).
You just need to watch out for comments in the files that will be mistaken
for separators.
I think that is safe enough in Rd files, as we process the concatenated
versions.
