Examples

cur_wd <- getwd()
setwd(tempdir())

# as for prompt() the default to save in current dir as "seq.Rd".
fnseq <- reprompt(seq)

# let's parse the saved Rd file
rdoseq <- parse_Rd(fnseq)

# the usage of 'seq' has several entries, parse them all

ut <- get_usage_text(rdoseq)
cat(ut,"\n")

utp <- parse_usage_text(ut)

# format some of them
as.character(utp[[1]])
deparse_usage1(utp[[1]])  # same

cat(deparse_usage1(utp[[2]]))
cat(as.character(utp[[2]]))   # same
