Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) See Also

Automatically generate an R funtion using source code contained in an R script.

1	autofun(fun.name, read.file, write.file)

`fun.name`	Name of the function.
`read.file`	A connection, or a character string naming the file that contains the R source code that will constitute the body of the function.
`write.file`	A connection, or a character string naming the file to write the function to.

The idea behind autofun is to use a standalone R script to create an R function. This is done parsing the R script and using the returned expression as the function body.

A function foo returned by autofun gets all the arguments from the working environment. This is done by evaluating the function with eval(foo()). Such a function can return several objects.
