Thank you! (That was easy to fix.) How does one deal with quoting (in \reference)? The following line causes problems: \references{Sela, Rebecca J., and Simonoff, Jeffrey S., \dQuote{RE-EM Trees: A New Data Mining Approach for Longitudinal Data}.} The error given is: Warning in parse_Rd("./man/predict.Rd", encoding = "unknown") : ./man/predict.Rd:28: unknown macro '\dquote' *** error on file ./man/predict.Rd Error : ./man/predict.Rd:28: Unrecognized macro \dquote
The manual for writing R packages said I should not just use the character ". What should I be using here? Thanks again!
