No. Whereas I partly agree that it's Ross ``fault'' trying to use too smart LaTex (and using outdated \bf instead of \mathbf), ;-) The bug is really there, since we are talking about the Rd "language", not LaTeX, an in Rd, \eqn and \deqn are defined to have either one or two arguments -- where Ross used the 2-argument version correctly (in principle at least) --> See the manual "Writing R Extensions". >> Full_Name: Ross Boylan >> Version: 2.2.0 >> OS: Linux >> Submission from: (NULL) (65.175.48.58) >> >> >> \eqn{{\bf\beta}_j}{b(j)} in my .Rd file produces this error >> -------------------------------------------- >> !
