edit.nb: Interactive editing of neighbours lists

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also Examples

View source: R/edit.nb.R

Description

The function provides simple interactive editing of neighbours lists to allow unneeded links to be deleted, and missing links to be inserted. It uses identify to pick the endpoints of the link to be deleted or added, and asks for confirmation before committing. If the result is not assigned to a new object, the editing will be lost - as in edit.
