[Going through some old and from what I see unanswered messages

See Writing R Extensions: The contents of subdirectory ./inst will be copied to top level during package installation (i.e. also for making binary packages).

Best wishes,

My OS is Windows XP. "Writing R Extensions", Section 1.1 states "‘README’ or ‘ChangeLog’ will be ignored by R, but may be useful to
end-users."  I see examples of README files in packages grDevices folder afm 
and nlme folder mlbook.


The README file was placed at the top level of the package source folder, after the DESCRIPTION file. After running R CMD check, build, and INSTALL --build, the README file was found in the tar.gz file. However,
it was not found in the zip file, the package Rcheck folder, and the R library 
package folder.


How is the README put into build such that it is reproduced in the R library installed package folder?
