How to set options() when a package without a name space is loaded?
Don't worry. Sorry for that, I should of course know that it is in .First.lib() as documented Section 1.1.4 on "Package subdirectories" in "Writing R Extensions"; "A common use is to call library.dynam() inside .First.lib() to load compiled code: another use is to call those functions with side effects". The reason why it "didn't work" was that I mispelled the option in .First.lib(). It's time for me to go home now ;) Henrik

Hi, how do I set options() when loading a package *without* a name space? Is it possible? I though this one was a common question, but I could not find it in the FAQ, in the help nor in the r-help/r-devel archives. Section 1.6.3 on "Load hooks" in "Writing R Extensions" says that this should be done using the .onLoad hook, but that does only apply to packages name spaces, cf. ?.onLoad Thanks Henrik
