[R-pkg-devel] Lost Braces in R Markdown File

[Duncan Murdoch]

[I sent this only to Jarrett on my first attempt, this was meant to go 
to the list.]

The syntax for the \item macro has two arguments, so the text "A matrix
containing only those specimen that have ..." is in braces that are
unnecessary.  That's why you got the note, because check thinks that was
unintentional and wanted to point it out to you.  It's legal, so it's
not an error, just a note.

If I look at the display of the help page ?aminoAcidFun, I think it's
right that something is wrong.  The formatting near the end of the Value
section looks messed up.
