[R] Please help with \usage{} for [.S3Class in Rd-Format

[Prof Brian Ripley]

I think you may be trying too hard.  Look at Extract.data.frame.Rd and 
Extract.factor.Rd.  I would just have an Extract.refdata.Rd.

You only need the  \methods{generic}{class} notation when you want to 
document a generic and a method, or more than one method, in the same help 
file.  And at present the Perl conversion does not cope with regexp 
characters in function names ....
