There was fairly recently a discussion on this list of a problem whose solution involved having code in NAMESPACE which exported everything whose name did not start with ".".
In the course of this discussion it was remarked that the code given in "Writing R Extensions", explicitly exportPattern("^[^\\.]") wasn't quite right and could/should have a simpler form. I don't really understand what's going on --- regular expressions completely blow me away. Can someone please inform me as to what the simpler form should be? [What really frustrates me is that I was *sure* I had saved the emails pertaining to this discussion, but now I cannot find any <expletive deleted> trace of what I thought I'd saved!] cheers, Rolf Turner -- Honorary Research Fellow Department of Statistics University of Auckland Stats.
