Thanks, Mark; do you mind if I forward this to the list? I'm currently
compiling a list of TODOs.

Subject: roxygen not escaping percent signs
From: Mark van der Loo

Dear Peter and Manuel,

I am using roxygen on my latest project. It seems that roxygen fails to
excape "%" characters in the
\alias and \usage fields. This gives a bug when trying to document
`%<OPERATOR>%` functions.

I can workaround the usage problem by adding a @usage tag. The alias always
includes the non-escaped version.

I can send an example if necessary.


Best Whishes,

Mark van der Loo
