Hello all,
trying to prepare my first package for submission to CRAN
I am stumbling over the "checking examples" step
of R CMD check.
I have some examples that produce more than one plot.
I currently separate those plot calls by
readline("Press <Return> for a plot including a density plot")
or some such to have R wait before producing the next plot.
This works OK for end users, but fails miserably
during R CMD check, which appears to just eat the
next line of the example source file for the input of readline
(which took me quite a while to understand it).
What is the right way to solve this problem?
I can hardly believe that there is none (although the
examples of 'plot' suggest exactly this: They run
through multiple plots in a hurry.)
I guess the appropriate approach would be if
example() had some kind of single-stepping option?
Any hints?

P.S.:
Documentation remark:
For users struggling with R CMD check it might be
very helpful if R-exts.pdf contained some pointers
to the functions or mechanisms used by R CMD check,
or the names of source files where to find such information
so they can better understand what is going on.
