[R-pkg-devel] [External] RcmdrPlugin.HH_1.1-48.tar.gz

[Richard M. Heiberger]

Thank you Duncan, Jeff, Ivan.

I did all that Duncan and Jeff suggested, plus a bit more that appeared to be necessary.
All of what I did is documented in the RcmdrPlugin.HH/NEWS file.

Ivan's comments were received after I sent 1.1-50 to CRAN and it was accepted.

I suggest that my notes in the NEWS file, perhaps augmented with Ivan's comments,
might be added to utils/man/globalVariables.Rd and to the
"
section ‘Package
structure’ in the ‘Writing R Extensions’ manual.
