[R] "%d/%m/%Y" can not be displayed in a .rd file

[Nutter, Benjamin]

Try "\%d/\%m/\%Y"

Escaping the % should do the trick.  If I remember correctly, Latex uses
the % as the comment delimiter.  I don't know if that's the cause of the
error, but escaping it has always solve the problem for me.

Subject: [R] "%d/%m/%Y" can not be displayed in a .rd file

Hi all,
  I found the date format (e.g."%d/%m/%Y") in the .rd file cannot be
displayed after building the package. See below, ###.rd file####
\examples{ a<-"10/20/1999"
DateConversion(a,DateIn="%m/%d/%Y",DateOut="%d/%m/%Y")
}
####The result is ####
Examples:
     a<-"10-20-1999"
     DateConversion(a,DateIn="

  ??"%m/%d/%Y" seems cannot be recognized.
    Is there some method to solve this and make it visible?
  Thanks a lot.
