Hi Kurt,

Thank you very much for clarifying this.

I hope that some documentation may be
written about these commands and added
to one of the manuals in the future.

Hi Kurt,
Thank you for the info!

However, I would also like to ask:

* Since the user may use any words as 'keywords',
what is the purpose of this command and what are
the benefits of using it?

* Where is the documentation for the '\Vignette*'
commands?

Because other than the '\VignetteIndexEntry' command,
I could not find any mentioning of them in the R-exts
manual, http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html.

I don't think that the vignette metadata are currently used "a lot".
They make it into the vignette index but users don't get to play with
this.  (There are long-standing plans to integrate vignettes into the
help system [with help and help.search], though.)

Hi R-devel,
[Question]:

* Is there a KEYWORDS file to lookup 'keywords' to supply
the vignette command, '\VignetteKeywords{}'?

-or, is the pkg writer free to tag the vignette using any
keywords he/she chooses? i.e., free-tagging.

For vignette keywords, the latter.
