collapseVec(x, space=TRUE, quote=FALSE, as.expr=FALSE)
notification(x, depth=0)
upperFirst(x)

`x`	a vector for `collapseVec`, otherwise a string.
`space`	logical; if `TRUE`, items will be separated by spaces after commas.
`quote`	logical; if `TRUE`, items will be quoted.
`as.expr`	logical; if `TRUE`, return a string which can be parsed as an expression.
`depth`	a non-negative integer.

collapseVec returns a string representing a vector, intended for printing or for entry as a value. The elements of the vector (“items”) are separated by commas and enclosed by parentheses.

notification returns x with the time and date appended, and depth tabs prepended.

upperFirst returns a version of x with the first letter (if any) in the string in upppercase.

A string.
