_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Utility for removing add-on packages.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     R CMD REMOVE [options] [-l lib] pkgs

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

    pkgs: a space-separated list with the names of the bundles or
          packages to be removed.

     lib: the path name of the R library tree to remove from.  May be
          absolute or relative.  Also accepted in the form
          '--library=lib'.

 options: further options for help or version.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     If the name of a bundle is given, the whole bundle will be
     removed.

     If used as 'R CMD REMOVE pkgs' without explicitly specifying
     'lib', packages are removed from the library tree rooted at the
     first directory in the library path which would be used by R run
     in the current environment.

     To remove from the library tree 'lib' instead of the default one,
     use 'R CMD REMOVE -l lib pkgs'.

     Use 'R CMD REMOVE --help' for more usage information.

_N_o_t_e:

     Some binary distributions of R have 'REMOVE' in a separate bundle,
     e.g. an 'R-devel' RPM.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     'INSTALL', 'remove.packages'
