R-beta: directory of functions

[Richard Lammers]

Is there any way to create a directory of functions in R?

In the past, when using S, I have used attach() to point to a
directory holding a set of functions.  This does not seem to work in R:

> attach(".Functions")
Error: attach only works for lists and data frames


Is there any way to keep the data separate from functions?


I suppose one approach would be to store the functions as text files and
source() them from .Rprofile

Is this the way most R users are currently dealing with this?
