Including Command Line Scripts with an R Package


Lovin' slidify so would be glad to help.

But in short, you can't.

R packages simply cannot install outside of $R_HOME or the chosen library folder. Ship the script in the package, and tell users to copy it. If there was a better way, out littler package with predecessor / alternative to Rscript would long have used it, and roxygen / roxygen2 would also have shipped something.
