R Project Updates

Updates from R Core:

• merge() gains new option no.dups and by default suffixes the second of two duplicated column names, thanks to a proposal by Scott Ritchie (and Gabe Becker).

• NAMEDMAX has been raised to 3 to allow protection of intermediate results from (usually ill-advised) assignments in arguments to BUILTIN functions. Package C code using SET_NAMED may need to be revised.

• The undocumented hidden objects .__H__.cbind and .__H__.rbind in package base are deprecated (in favour of cbind and rbind).

• Arithmetic with data frames gives a data frame for ^ (which previously gave a numeric matrix).

• read.table() with non-default separator now supports quotes following a non-whitespace, matching the behavior of scan().

• Writing R Extensions now documents the R_tryCatch, R_tryCatchError, and R_UnwindProtect functions.
