[R-SIG-Mac] Finding package files

[John Maindonald]

> system.file()
[1] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/base"

There is much else that you can do with system.file(), 
e.g.
> system.file("misc/ViewTemps.RData", package="DAAG")
[1] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/DAAG/misc/ViewTemps.RData"

On windows systems, you might want to use normalizepath() as a wrapper.
Cheers
John.
