[Rd] Code tools for identifying which package A functions package B use?

[Henrik Bengtsson]

Thanks Kasper, that seems to do it:

$ url=https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/trunk/madman/Rpacks/codetoolsBioC
$ svn checkout --username readonly --password readonly $url
$ R CMD build codetoolsBioC
$ R CMD INSTALL codetoolsBioC
$ R

> library("codetoolsBioC")
> deps <- findExternalDeps("MASS")
attaching required packages 'MASS'
Loading required package: MASS
> str(deps)
List of 4
 $ S4Classes: list()
 $ S4Methods:List of 1
  ..$ methods: chr "body<-"
 $ functions:List of 5
  ..$ base     : chr [1:248] "-" "!" "!=" "$" ...
  ..$ graphics : chr [1:16] "abline" "axis" "box" "frame" ...
  ..$ grDevices: chr [1:5] "dev.flush" "dev.hold" "nclass.FD" ...
  ..$ methods  : chr "new"
  ..$ stats    : chr [1:97] ".checkMFClasses" ".getXlevels" ...
 $ variables:List of 1
  ..$ base: chr [1:4] ".GlobalEnv" ".Machine" ".Options" "pi"

Great!
