R-beta: package ported from S to R

Wed, May 13, 1998 3:30 AM #

Hello,

I'm trying to port the S package "print.display" to R. The porting
procedure seemed to work, but when I say library(print.display) or
library("print.display"), then none of the functions is available. May 
be, it's because of the dot in the package name?

What could have happened?

The help information is available.

BTW: How can I look up wether the package is really loaded? 

Thanks,

Just tried a sample package with a dot in the filename and it worked
fine.

How and where did you install the package? Using the R INSTALL
mechanism or by hand? Is it in the library search path .lib.loc?


HP> BTW: How can I look up wether the package is really loaded? 

search() shows an entry like "package:base" for every loaded package.

Best,
