| \title{Remove Add-on Packages} |
| \description{Utility for removing add-on packages.} |
| \usage{ |
| \special{R CMD REMOVE [options] [-l lib] pkgs} |
| } |
| \arguments{ |
| \item{pkgs}{a space-separated list with the names of the packages to |
| be removed.} |
| \item{lib}{the path name of the \R library tree to remove from. May |
| be absolute or relative. Also accepted in the form \samp{--library=lib}.} |
| \item{options}{further options for help or version.} |
| } |
| \details{ |
| If used as \command{R CMD REMOVE pkgs} without explicitly specifying |
| \code{lib}, packages are removed from the library tree rooted at the |
| first directory in the library path which would be used by \R run in |
| the current environment. |
| |
| To remove from the library tree \code{\var{lib}} instead of the default |
| one, use \command{R CMD REMOVE -l lib \var{pkgs}}. |
| |
| Use \command{R CMD REMOVE --help} for more usage information. |
| } |
| #ifdef unix |
| \note{ |
| Some binary distributions of \R have \code{REMOVE} in a separate |
| bundle, e.g.\sspace{}an \code{R-devel} RPM. |
