(copying over to bioc-devel). I do appreciate the very few keystrokes
it takes to do, e.g.
vignette('affy')
of course I can find them all with browseVignettes('affy') and
sometimes the above is not the right name, but I like that the primary
documentation is so close at hand. this is slightly more of a pain:
vignette('affy-vignette')

Hi, For the BiocCheck of the vignette name, one could also check that the vignette file name is not 'package.[Rnw|Rmd]'. This would give more flexibility, and avoid a fixed naming scheme. Since the issue affects all R packages - bioc or not -, I still think it is worth trying to address this at the R level. Best wishes Julian On 05.08.2014 10:36, Dan Tenenbaum wrote:
I'm not sure this is true. The vignette can be named whatever the package author wants, as long as it has the appropriate file extension. So BiocCheck could suggest that it be named package-vignette.Rnw instead of package.Rnw. And the compiled (PDF) reference manual doesn't exist in a source package. So (this is probably better than my previous suggestion) BioC could rename the compiled manuals on the package landing pages to be (e.g.) package-manual.pdf instead of package.pdf. Dan
