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.
They were never used for their intended purpose, to allow one
package to subsume another.
getenv has been replaced by Sys.getenv.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parse.dcf has been replaced by read.dcf, which is much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 way to create duplicate
references to the same object. There is no direct replacement. Where
multiple references to a single object are required for semantic
reasons consider using environments or external pointers. There are
some notes on http://developer.r-project.org.
.Dyn.libs and .lib.loc were internal variables used for
storing and manipulating the information about packages with dynloaded
shared libs, and the known R library trees. These are now dynamic
variables which one can get or set using .dynLibs and
.libPaths, respectively.
Machine() and Platform() were functions returning the
variables .Machine and .Platform
respectively.
restart() should be replaced by try(), in preparation
for an exception-based implementation. If you use restart() in
a way that cannot be replaced with try() then ask for help
on r-devel.
printNoClass was in package methods and calls directly the
internal function print.default.
codes was almost always used inappropriately. To get the
internal coding of a factor, use unclass, as.vector or
as.integer. For ordered factors, codes was
equivalent to these, but for unordered factors it assumed an
an alphabetical ordering of the levels in the locale in use.
print.atomic differed from print.default only in its
argument sequence. It is not a method for print.
La.eigen has become the default for eigen.
tetragamma and pentagamma have been replaced by
psigamma.
package.description has been replaced by
packageDescription in utils.
loadURL has been superseded by load(url()).
delay has been replaced by delayedAssign.
As from R 2.1.0 promises should never be visible unevaluated.
write.table0 was an R-level version of write.table
provided for temporary back-compatibility.
format.char was an auxiliary function for formatC
whose functionality (and more) is provided by format.default.
La.chol and La.chol2inv became the default methods for
chol and chol2inv.
