Showing information about a package

Shows detailed CRAN information for a package.

packageDetails(package, brief = FALSE, show.tip = TRUE, index = NULL)

Arguments

package	Either the name of a package (capitalization does generally not matter) or the search result number shown in the results of findPackage() (the number in the GO column). Only one package is allowed here.
brief	If "TRUE", only title, short and long description as well as the maintainer of the package are shown, otherwise all available fields are displayed.
show.tip	If "TRUE", tips for getting additional information on the package are shown.
index	Either a path (or URL) to a search index, or a search index that is already loaded. If no index is provided, packageDetails() creates an ad hoc search index.

Value

No return value.

#> Title: Create Elegant Data Visualisations Using the Grammar of Graphics

#> Long description: 
#> A system for 'declaratively' creating graphics,
#>     based on "The Grammar of Graphics". You provide the data, tell 'ggplot2'
#>     how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use,
#>     and it takes care of the details.
