Dear All,
I have the following in a .Rd file:

human readable (not binary) format. The format itself is like
the following:

vertex2name [optionalWeight]

and it is fine with R 2.9.2, but fails on R-devel, when building the
PDF version of the manual:
...
* checking PDF version of manual ... WARNING
LaTeX errors when creating PDF version.
This typically indicates Rd problems.
LaTeX errors found:

<argument> ...ike the following: \begin {alltt} ##

To be precise, this is
* using R version 2.10.0 Under development (unstable) (2009-09-27 r49847)
Is there a way to escape the '#' for LaTeX?
I believe the Latex macro you want is \sharp, which isnt an Rd macro, so
you'd need something like
\latex{\sharp}{#}.
Duncan,
this might solve the issue in Latex (I haven't tried yet), but in R
(version 2.9.2) the manual page looks like
...
is like the following:
\latex{\sharp}{#} vertex1name
vertex2name [optionalWeight]
vertex3name [optionalWeight]
Here, the first vertex of an edge is preceded with a pound sign
...
which is obviously not what I want.
I guess that's still in the \preformatted section, which doesn't act on
Rd macros. Sorry about that, my advice assumed you were putting it into
text.
Did 2.9.x emit the \sharp in this situation, or did it do something
else? We do some rewriting of special characters when writing verbatim
text, and it looks as though our handling of # has changed. (I'm just
heading out to a long meeting, or I'd check myself...)
