Following helpful correspondence with Mark Bravington, mvbutils::foodweb and
callers.of can do exactly what I wanted very neatly and easily.
The trick is to use base::asNamespace to see non-exported objects in the
package. base::asNamespace is described as "Internal name space support

Thanks for the suggestions. Just to wrap up this thread...
Rainer Krug pointed out that Roxygen did have dependency graphs, although
Roxygen2 doesn't. But I guess (probably wrongly!) that I'd need to
process/modify the .R files to use that, and I'm not the package author.

Roxygen had the functionality to draw dependency graphs - but I th
