_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Methods and classes for object-oriented programming in R with or
     without references.  Large effort has been made on making
     definition of methods as simple as possible with a minimum of
     maintainance for package developers.  For example, generic
     functions are created automatically, if missing, and name conflict
     are automatically solved, if possible.  The method setMethodS3()
     is a good start for those who in the future want to migrate to S4.
      The package has been developed since 2001 and is now considered
     very stable.
