[R-SIG-Finance] can't find setstart setbound setfixed in rugarch package

[ce]

Hi Alexios,

Thanks for the answer. In fact I was reading your document http://www.unstarched.net/r-examples/rugarch/a-short-introduction-to-the-rugarch-package/
and I copied pasted the code. My old eyes didn't see the space . But still I can't find setbounds 

> require(rugarch)
Loading required package: rugarch
Loading required package: Rcpp
Loading required package: RcppArmadillo
Package Rsolnp (1.14) loaded.  To cite, see citation("Rsolnp")

Error: could not find function "setbounds"

That's because you use "< -" which is completely invalid syntax in this 
setting. There is no space in the assignment function between "<" and 
"-". (i.e. it should be "<-")
