Details

The existence of this help page should trigger a WARNING during R CMD check.

Other than that, this file checks for possible problems in how within-package links are handled, as well as potential problems with special characters and case.

The usual forms of a within-package link to a topic foo are

These are meant to behave like help(foo), presumably with preference to the current package, although this is maybe not clearly documented. Links to a file by name are not supported. The following are examples of the first form:

For the last two examples, the resolution to a topic in another package is attempted at package installation time for static HTML, so this is one situation where the static behaviour cannot easily be changed to match the dynamic behaviour.

Corresponding examples of the second form are:

Special characters

Math operator aliases in particular could lead to weird filenames. Here are some examples:

Case mismatch

Filenames on Windows / Mac (?) are not case-sensitive; this could lead to problems particularly with aliases that differ by case.

These links to grid have the wrong case: rectgrob; GRID.RECT.

The following pairs of aliases are both valid, but are in different files.

Explicit package links: FUN4; fun4.

Implicit package links: FUN4; fun4.
