[R-sig-Geo] random locations within a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame

[lancelot]

Dear Emmanuel,

Thank you for the suggestion. I am aware of spsample but it is not 
appropriate to my needs. I want to generate a random sample of points 
within the borders of a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame, like runifpoint does 
with the borders of an owin object.

Best wishes,

Renaud
