Nice! I'll look at integrating it into bauerbill as an optdep when I get some time. It should just need a way to construct a "database" so that it can search for packages. If you want to help me with that, take a look at how it handles Hackage and CPAN.

Do you mean a local database or remote one? Because the list of available packages can be fetched from http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES

That's perfect. I'll write a parser for that to generate a local database for searches etc. It may be a while before I have the time though (or not, as I'm easily sidetracked :P). Regards, Xyne
