I am still an avid user of R base plotting and fortunately so are a lot of
the interesting packages I use.
However, to this day, I am still annoyed by the fact that many functions do
not support the "add" parameter.
In many cases, this is caused by xy.plot not supporting it (because the

The ridge() function was put into the survival package as a simple
example of what a user could do with penalized functions. It's not a
"serious" function, and I'd be open to any suggestions for change.
Actually, for any L2 penalty + Cox model one is now better off using
coxme as the maximizatio

I agree completely with Uwe on this one. Yet, the idea of Rainer is
useful if you replace "remove the package" by "orphan the package".
Some sort of automated orphanization. The package remains available
that way if I understood it right, and can more easily be adopted by
another developer that fee

Hi Michael,
I'll look into moving survival to suggests (this weekend, if I have time),
but that doesn't address the more general issue.
Best,

I like the idea of making the functions local, and will persue it.
This issue has bothered me for a long time -- I had real misgivings when
I introduced "cluster" to the package, but did not at that time see any
way other than making it global.
I might make this change soon in the ridge functio

Hi,
The "\preformatted" environment in Rd files doesn't seem to escape
long sequences of backslashes properly when converted to pdf (LaTeX)
documentation. I'm running R version 2.14 (from subversion, revision
57751) on Linux (RHEL). Here's an example from the command line:
echo
"\title{test}\n
I've spent the last few hours baffled by a test suite inconsistency.
The exact same library code gives slightly different answers on the home
and work machines - found in my R CMD check run. I've recopied the entire
directory to make sure it's really identical code.
