[Rd] Import data set from another package?

[Jeroen Ooms]

You could add something like this to your package:

.onLoad <- function(libname, pkgname){
  data(ergoStool, package="nlme", envir = environment(.onLoad));
}

This should basically do the same as importFrom(nlme, "ergoStool") but
then for a lazy load dataset.
