I have noted that the later versions of Rcmd check cleans out the
directory pkg.Rcheck so that only package-manual.log and package-
manual.pdf are left.
Formerly the package-manual.tex was around too --- very handy for
various purposes.
Is there a way to generate the .tex - version of the manual for a
package?
On unix-alike systems one can do
R CMD Rd2dvi --no-clean <package name>
and then look in a (hidden) directory .Rd2dvi<nnn> where ``<nnn>''
represents a 3 digit number.
You get a message saying
" You may want to clean up by 'rm -rf .Rd2dvi<nnn>' "
which tells you the value of ``<nnn>''. The tex file you want
is called Rd2.tex.
There is probably a similar incantation that works under Windoze.
