Hi the list,

I am using package.skeleton on a file that has a very classic name, but 
package.skeleton detect it as a invalid name :

--- 8< -------
package.skeleton(name="packClassicBis",code_files="./packClassic/R/progClassic.R")

Cr?ation des r?pertoires...
Cr?ation de DESCRIPTION...
Cr?ation de 'Read-and-delete-me'...
Recopiage des fichiers de code...
Cr?ation des fichiers d'aide ...
Termin?.
Les ?tapes suivantes sont d?crites dans './packClassic4/Read-and-delete-me'.
Warning message:
In package.skeleton(name = "packClassic4", code_files = 
"./packClassic/R/progClassic.R") :
  Nom(s) de fichier(s) invalide(s) pour du code R ./packClassic4/R:
  'progClassic.R'
sont maintenant renomm?s vers 'z<nom>.R'
--- 8< -------

It create the file "zprogClassic.R" in directorie "packClassicBis\R"
Is there something wrong in my code or is it a bug in package.skeleton ?

I think you're right, it's a bug.  package.skeleton assumes that 
code_files lists files in the current directory, and will give that 
warning if they are given with qualified paths.

It should be easy to fix; I'll take a look.  Thanks for the report.

By the way, will it be a big change to allow the user to give the name 
of a directories instead of a file ? The following code :
code_file=c("dir1\file1.r","dir1\file2.r","dir1\file3.r")

willl become :

code_file=c("dir1\")

Then, reconizing that dir1\ is a directories, skeleton.package will 
include all the file that are in the directorie ?
