typo in R-exts
'whole of', as svn up will show you.
I prefer 'svn praise' myself.
BTW, it is very easy to read @file{foo} as 'file foo', and that is a
frequent problem.

I'm not sure what was intended here, so I can't suggest a fix.
'svn blame' tells me that this was Brian's addition in rev.35362. There is no previous version to help with guessing the intention. One possibility is that "The whose" should be "The directory", or maybe "The whole directory".
