Summary: IMPLEMENTD IN SVN: function to get labels from a dataframe.

Initial Comment:
rkward stores dataframe variable labels as variable attribute metadata. It's possible to get a single label, with rk.get.label(dataframe[,x]), where x is the variable you want. It would be good to get all the labels from a dataframe, and store them as a vector. 

There might be a simpler way to do this, but this works for me:

rk.get.labels <- function(dataframe)
  {
  labelsvector <- c()
  for (i in 1:length(dataframe))
    {
    labelsvector <- c(labelsvector,rk.get.label(dataframe[,i]))
    }
  return(labelsvector)
  }

This is a generic message to let you know, that the requested feature is

Testing is always welcome, as are further comments on details of the

Thanks for the suggestion. I guess it's reasonable to add something like
that. However, we really need to start documenting those functions, before
we add too much. Let's see what we can do for the next release.

Here's a one-line version of your function:
rk.get.labels <- function (df) sapply (df, rk.get.label)
