Hello, I don't think you have to (and shouldn't?) document raw data. However, you can use it in examples/tests/etc. using the system.file() command you mention.
But maybe you want to export the data? In that case it should be under data/. This chapter of the R packages book might be useful <https://r-pkgs.org/data.html> (as well as <https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Data-in-packages>). Maëlle.

Is the correct doctype "data"? The usage of loading this type of data is system.file("extdata", nameoffile, package="nameofpackage") Is this the correct string to put in the \usage section? I have tried this, but get errors such as: Functions or methods with usage in documentation object 'nameoffile' but not in code: 'system.file' Has anyone done this recently and have an example to see where I'm going wrong? This check seems to be new as in the past I simply had lazydata set to true and it passed tests. Thanks for any help.
