[R-pkg-devel] Tool for advanced man/doc page check?

Hi,

I am the maintainer of a package for which we have done a major 
refactoring (work in progress, can be found here 
<https://github.com/getkeops/keops/tree/fix_rkeops_v2_keops_v2.3/rkeops>).

Upon my last resubmission to CRAN, some issues regarding some man pages 
(that I obviously missed) were found, e.g. function doc without a 
\value{} tag, or examples for (purposely) unexported functions.

These issues were not raised during package check (with or without 
`--as-cran` flag).

The code base is quite large, and I would be very interested in any tool 
that could help me check the man pages more thoroughly than a package 
check ?

I know about `devtools::check_man()` but it does not find the issues 
that I am mentioning.

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,

--
