Betreff: [R] how to use # in a rd doc in url address

I am writing a rd doc, and need to use "#" in a url adress. This would make:

\url{http://www.xxxx.org/myfolder/#myanchor}

Of course, I suppose this will not work because # is a special character
starting a comment line in the rd dialect.  I did not found a similar
example in "Writing R exentions". I am not sure bout using \dQuote{a
quotation}), and use \sQuote and \dQuote correctly. Does anyone know how to
get the thing right ?

Patrick

I am not working on consol mode (which would make your suggestion 
straight applicable), but writing a rd documentationn (the documentation 
that comes out with the command ?myfunction). The rd file has a Latex 
style syntax and I just want to insert the url within this 
documentation. Eg.

\details{
You may want to connect to \url{http://www.xxxx.org/myfolder/#myanchor}
}

I am not sure one can define a variable and print it in such context...

Best

Patrick

That should work.

That's not correct.  # is only special in R code, and with \url{} the 
text is considered as verbatim text, i.e. only \, %, { and } are special.

  I did not found a similar
example in "Writing R exentions". I am not sure bout using \dQuote{a 
quotation}), and use \sQuote and \dQuote correctly. Does anyone know how 
to get the thing right ?
I don't understand this question.

You answered it above... There is no reason for using special 
"quotation" considering your reminder: "with \url{} the text is 
considered as verbatim text"

Thanks for the focus,

Yes, can confirmed it works perfect without any complication... Good 
lesson. Being used to prepare oneself to the worst, one over-anticipates 
it, but occasionally  it does not happen

Cheers,

Patrick
