I would like to add some documentation for these functions, so that I can do a

inside R.  The documentation tells me how to mark up Rd files is very
good, but I wonder how one installs them for access by the R
executable (on OSX for me).  Do I drop them into a special directory?
Which ones are allowed?  Do I need to package everything into a
library, or can I just add Rd files for source'd files?  Do I parse
the Rd files for R, or does R parse the Rd files on demand?

so, is there a primer on installing Rd files?

Writing R Extensions is the main documentation. You put them in the man directory of a package, and R does the rest when you install the package.
