This is my first attempt to build a package so the question is probably
trivial. I try to gather a small set of pure-R functions (5) and their
help file (Rd format) in a package (rmisc) using tools provided by Pr
Ripley (http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/tools.zip) and perl
(ActivePerl-5.6.1). The make pkg command runs smoothly, but errors are
found by make pkgcheck. The strange thing is that if I try to make a
package with any one (and even up to 4) of the 5 functions, everything
is ok (including make pkgcheck). The error msg from make pkgcheck is not
informative (for me...): the last lines of the Rout file written in
subdirectory check are:
>
> library('rmisc')
Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error on line 56
Execution halted

How can I debug this ? How can I find what is on line 56 ?

Many thanks in advance,

Renaud
