You could take your old install and do this:

  library("your_package")
  funs <- ls(pos="package:your_package")
  dump(funs,"your_package.R")

that wouldn't recreate documentation, NAMESPACE files, etc., but it would be a start.

Several years ago I assembled some of my own most used code into a package,

files, but still have the package installed in an old v2.x R installation.

I now need to use the package in my current R install, which is v3.1, and
won't let me just copy the directory across, as it complains it was build
pre v3.  Is it possible to reverse engineer a package back to R source
files so I can then rebuild it in a new package ?

Thanks

Paul.
