Format Rd fragments as macros (todo: a baffling title!)
Rdo_macro.RdFormat Rd fragments as macros, generally by putting them in a list and setting the "Rd_tag" as needed.
Usage
Rdo_macro(x, name)
Rdo_macro1(x, name)
Rdo_macro2(x, y, name)
Rdo_item(x, y)
Rdo_sigitem(x, y, newline = TRUE)Details
Rdo_macro1 wraps x in a list with "Rd_tag"
name. This is the representation of Rd macros with one argument.
Rdo_macro2 basically wraps a possibly transformed x and
y in a list with "Rd_tag" name. More specifically,
if x has a non-NULL "Rd_tag", x is wrapped in
list. Otherwise x is left as is, unless x is a
character string, when it is converted to a text Rd element and
wrapped in list. y is processed in the same way.
This is the representation of Rd macros with two arguments.
Rdo_macro returns an object with "Rd_tag" name,
constructed as follows. If x is not of class "character", its
attribute "Rd_tag" is set to name and the result
returned without further processing. Otherwise, if it is of class
"character", x is tagged as an Rd "TEXT" element. It is then
wrapped in a list but only if name is one of "\eqn" or
"\deqn". Finally, Rdo_macro1 is called on the
transformed object.
Rdo_item is equivalent to Rdo_macro2 with name
set to "\item".
Rdo_sigitem is for items which have the syntax used in
description of signatures. In that case the first argument of
"\item" is wrapped in "\code". If y is missing,
a text inviting the author to provide a description of the function
for this signature is inserted.
