Defunct Functions

Description:

     The functions listed here are no longer part of R as they are not
     needed (any more).

Usage:

     .Defunct()

     Version()
     provide(package)
     .Provided
     category(...)
     dnchisq(.)
     pnchisq(.)
     qnchisq(.)
     rnchisq(.)
     print.anova.glm(.)
     print.anova.lm(.)
     print.tabular(.)
     print.plot(.)
     save.plot(.)
     system.test(.)
     dotplot(...)
     stripplot(...)
     getenv(...)
     read.table.url(url, method,...)
     scan.url(url, file = tempfile(), method, ...)
     source.url(url, file = tempfile(), method, ...)
     httpclient(url, port=80, error.is.fatal=TRUE, check.MIME.type=TRUE,
                file=tempfile(), drop.ctrl.z=TRUE)
     parse.dcf(text = NULL, file = "", fields = NULL, versionfix = FALSE)

Details:

     `.Defunct' is the function to which defunct functions are set.

     `category' has been an old-S function before there were factors;
     should be replaced by `factor' throughout!

     The `*chisq()' functions now take an optional non-centrality
     argument, so the `*nchisq()' functions are no longer needed.

     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. They were
     never used for their intended purpose, to allow one package to
     subsume another.

     `dotplot' and `stripplot' have been renamed to `dotchart' and
     `stripchart', respectively.

     `getenv' has been replaced by `Sys.getenv'.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     `parse.dcf' has been replaced by `read.dcf', which is much faster,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.
