Is there a means of recovering the source from a package with LazyLoad = true? Package is Windows 2.9.1 pure R but have no access to original. In R directory, I see <pkgname>, <pkgname>.rd[bx], <sysdata>.rd[bx]. Attempting this on OS X 10.6 with R-2.11.1 if it matters. Sent from my iPhone

?lazyLoad Cheers, Simon
I had already tried that but can't get past this: Error: package was built before R 2.10.0: please re-install it Sent from my iPhone

He said use lazyLoad, not library. It works for me:
env <- new.env()
lazyLoad('R/foo', envir = env)
dump(ls(env, all=TRUE), "foo.R", envir=env)
and BTW this is not going to work if S4 objects are involved and if
the package had a namespace you'll need the NAMESPACE file (or try to
recover that from the metadata).
