[Roxygen-devel] Multiple space separated parameter

Dear list,

I came across an issue filed in 2011 as git(hub) repository issue [1],
then on this mailing list [2] (with no reply) and nowadays on
stackoverflow [3].
The issue is about providing a method to use @param with multiple
arguments which are comma AND space separated to allow a line break in
the final Rd file. Examples can be found on SO [3].

Are there any attempts to include a solution as suggested in [1,2] such as
@multParam 3 a b c Description
or
@param {a, b, c} Description
?
I would prefer the second format, with [],{} or ().

Thank you,
Sven.
