thanks :-)

yes it is... the trade-off for the vision of having R functions for everything 
a plugin is made of, to be able to script plugins in total (without switching 
languages or editors). the good news is that there's not much left in my 
personal TODO list ;-)

i was planning on writing a vignette for the package to have exactly that.

in addition to that on the package side, i'm about to enhance the rkwarddev 
specific section in the writing plugins docs, by explaining the t-test script, 
like it's already done in the GUI XML and JavaScript sections. this will not 
cover everything, but it should be helpful to get the idea, and to have that 
in this context.

this will happen once everything has fallen into place in the package, so i 
don't have to re-edit too much.

do you mean in the function docs? can i link to the help system from an Rd 
file?
