Hi. In the last version of package ?sn? (v. 2.1.0) the old NEWS text file
has been converted to inst/NEWS.Rd. The headers in this file are of the form
\section{Changes in sn version 2.1.0 (2022-07-30)}
\section{Changes in sn version 2.0.2 (2022-03-07)}
and so on
However, when I now look at the package documentation in the HTML rendering,
the ?NEWS in packages ?sn?? does NOT display the dates!
Details on the session are reported below, in case they are relevant.
Can anyone explain how show these dates?
In an interacticve session news(package="sn") open a web page in some web browser and the html code does not contain the dates, but the text form does: print(news(package="sn"), doBrowse=FALSE) To analyzse more precisely, we can directly look at the database if the format was read correctly: db <- news(package="sn") str(db) db$Date and all dates were read correctly.
