[R] Rd files with "%" (was: permuting dimensions)

[Robin Hankin]

Professor Ripley

thanks for this.   Very much appreciated.

The original subject line reflected my late-night conviction
that the answer might involve passing a strange list to do.call().

Anyway, package magic is broken (only in R-devel, I might add)  because I have
a function called "%eq%".

R-2.0.0  CMD check is stopping (I think) because it interprets  the 
"%" as a control character.

Does anyone have a best-practice  example of a package  that includes a
function like "%eq%" that I could modify?  In particular, how do I get
\usage{m1 %eq% m2}  and \examples{..}  to work nicely?


best wishes
