Dear all,

As the object of this mail suggests, the methods package is not loaded by 
default in R2.13 when using Rscript whereas it is loaded when using an 
interactive session.

An example with the metafor package :

library(metafor)
example(addpoly.rma)

this works in an interaction R shell, but put it in a .R file and use it with 
Rscript, it won't work until you added

library(methods)

One of my colleague had the same issue with other custom R functions (work in 
2.12, not anymore in 2.13 because of the same behavior)

Is this something that was planned or a bug?

Best

Vincent
