Indeed, thanks.

Btw. is it by design, that if I do EVAL(lang3(install(), ...)) from a
package, it is not evaluated in the package's namespace?

Anyway, this is how I did it in some old code of mine:

  PROTECT(rho = EVAL(lang2(install("getNamespace"),
                           ScalarString(mkChar("igraph")))));

  PROTECT(ec=eval(lang3(install(".igraph.progress"), ScalarReal(percent),
                        ScalarString(mkChar(message))), rho));

I guess this still works.

Best,
Gabor
