Hi all,
In the CRAN package policies [1], it says
"Packages should not start external software (such as PDF viewers or
browsers) during examples or tests unless that specific instance of
the software is explicitly closed afterwards."
If I want to refer to a website with browseURL in the examples,
what's the most elegant way to do it?
\dontrun --> obtrusive "## not run" parts, confuse new R-users
# browseURL("www.link.html") --> user must uncomment things
Or do you think links should only be used in Vignettes / References section?
In this case, it's a reference to a statistical method,
and yes, I slightly feel like I'm misusing the examples section.
But I think that's where most people explore function usage...
Thanks for any ideas and thoughts,
Berry
