Note: rST support is deprecated and probably doesn't work anymore.

System requirements: pandoc
Caution: not tested on humans and other animals. This package in its current version is not intended to serve any purpose other than generating the awesome API documentation for the genieclust, stringi, stringx, and realtest packages.
I'm applying a super-lazy approach here: the complete manual bundle
is generated from the HTML version as produced by R CMD INSTALL <pkg> --html.
It's because tools::Rd2HTML() does a pretty good job
by outputting well-structured and easily-digestible source files.
It also does cross-referencing right.
Yet, it's far from perfect with regards to mathematical formulae.
I have no time to implement a full-fledged parser. Feel free to contact me to discuss further ideas and maybe we can come up with something more useful together.
Also, it would be nice to implement a standalone Sphinx domain for R. See https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/domains.html and https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/extdev/domainapi.html. Want to do it together? Drop me an email. Cheers.
