Hi, all,

Can anyone tell me what this line in library() does?
  .Internal(lib.fixup(env, .GlobalEnv))

The reason I ask is that I'm writing a function that uses a bit of library()
code, and I want to know if I should include it:

  g.data.attach <- function(dir, pos=2) {
    env <- attach(NULL, pos, paste("package",basename(dir),sep=":"))
    attr(env, "path") <- dir
    sys.source(file.path(dir, "R", basename(dir)), env, keep.source=F)
  }

Thanks!  I'll try to make this my last message for today!
