This PR fixes instances where the "Lost braces" errors appear. The changes made were:

  • Change itemize{} to describe{}
  • Remove double quotes (") where they weren't needed and led to errors
  • Fixed minor typos

Background

This task was proposed by R Core developer Kurt Hornik as part of an initiative to help package authors by submitting pull requests to public repositories that exhibit easily resolvable CRAN check issues, starting with “Lost braces” in documentation files (issue here)

Next steps

If this package uses roxygen2, you may wish to regenerate documentation to ensure future updates do not reintroduce these issues. Otherwise, the corrected .Rd files can be merged directly.

Hope this is helpful! :)

Dear Chitra,

thanks for this - I realize I'm behind fixing various issues with this package, which I didn't manage simply due to time reasons. I'll try to draft a CRAN update to BT as soon as possible, where these issues will be solved.

Best
Florian

That being said - there seem to be issues, I guess the describe / item syntax requires a { to follow \item ? I can fix this myself though!

Dear Florian,

No rush! We did this as part of R Dev Day Australia and hoped this would be helpful :) I will check that and update the PR!

Cheers,
Chitra
