[Rd] Package options

[Chris Brien]

Dear all,

I am developing a package foo that has a namespace. I would like to be able to provide an option, say opt, that 

1) is set to a default value when the package is loaded
2) can be set to a different value by the package user
3) is used by functions within the package

How can I achieve this?

Cheers,
