Given this question, and the previous one about environment variables and
file paths, it looks like you really should set your project up as a 
full R package.  While this might be a painful transition under CVS (never
have changed file paths mid-project, but I hear it's not trivial), 
it should be worth it to eliminate headaches like cross-platform file
sourcing, and should also ease documentation writing and storage.

See the "Writing R Extensions" manual (R-exts.pdf).  You might also 
want to get the book "S Programming", another good one by Venables 
and Ripley.  And *definately* check out the function package.skeleton,
which sets up template files for you (very slick, and helps me remember
details I might normally overlook).

Cheers

Jason
