[R] Writing Rd files dor package

[Michael Mader]

In general, it's advantageous to do a check before the build (R CMD
check mypackage on Linux/UNIX).
R CMD check extensively checks the Rd-formatting and might give you a
hint on what's wrong with your Rd-files. 

However, it's quite hard to diagnose problems without having the
problem-causing code/Rd files. Can you reduce one of your Rd-files to a
minimum-length example?
