%\VignetteIndexEntry{User manual}
\documentclass{a
If R-forge gives the warning, it is likely to be their configuration

directory instead of the tarball), so it is better to report to
R-forge admins directly.

Henrik, thanks for your reply. I might have misrepresented a bit my actual
code . It seems that you are suggesting doing rm() on objects i don't use.
In the real code which behavior i
