Details

Some of these have stubs which report that they are defunct, but most have been removed completely (apart from being documented here). category has been an old-S function before there were factors; should be replaced by factor throughout! The new function dev.print() should now be used for saving plots to a file or printing them. provide and its object .Provided have been removed. Their intended purpose was to allow one package to subsume another, but this was never used. getenv has been replaced by Sys.getenv. *.url are replaced by calling read.table, scan or source on a url connection. httpclient was used by the deprecated "socket" method of download.file. parse.dcf has been replaced by read.dcf, which is much faster, but has a slightly different interface. .Alias provided an unreliable
