pragma.package: Provides a pragma / directive / keyword syntax for R

In pragma: Provides a pragma / directive / keyword syntax for R.

Description

R is a functional language. All action taken are made through function calls. These calls are denoted by the use of parens – even when no arguments are necessary. Very often these parameterless functions are used to set some behaviour of the program, script or package. These abbreviated, argumentless functions are called pragmas ( or directives or keywords ).

This pragma syntax is non-essential. The same functionality can be used through the use of a standard function calls. What pragma mostly offers is a way for package authors to provide their users with a distinctive and clean syntax for adjusting package options.
