[Rd] Load a package without installing it

Hi all,

When developing a package, it's often useful to be able to reload it,
without re-installing, re-starting R and re-loading.  To do this I've
written a little script that inspects the package description and
loads dependencies, data and code - http://gist.github.com/180883.
It's obviously not very general (being tailored to my description
files) and won't work for packages containing C code, but I hope you
might find it useful nonetheless.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Hadley
