Dear R-devel,
In the example block of the documentation for a package, I need to use
a single quote in a string:
foo <- "Don't know"
After building the package, it gets printed as:
foo <- "Dont know"
I don't see this. Can you give more details, i.e. R version, how you printed it, etc.? It may be that you're not using an ascii single quote character, your editor has slipped in something else. Duncan Murdoch
I read the "Writing R Extensions" and "Parsing Rd files" from top to
bottom, but didn't find any solution.
Using \verb{} doesn't help, as:
Tag \verb is invalid in a \examples block
Neither \sQuote doesn't help, as:
'\s' is an unrecognized escape in character string starting ""Don\s"
I found the only macros which are interpreted within text are \var and
\link ... therefore I am stuck.
Any hint to other documentation I might read?
Thank you,
Adrian
