UPDATE: Wrapping is now turned off by default in
roxygen2
, so this should not be an issue anymore.
I have invented a new comment syntax for roxygen2
that will preserve wrapping: Comments starting with
#''
are not wrapped at all. My reference implementation hasn't received much attention yet, though...
Of course, turning off wrapping altogether is also a way to handle the problem, but I wonder how the help looks like in a command-line terminal if the developer forgets to wrap her roxygen comments... There must have been a reason why wrapping was introduced in the first place.
