Hello,

You are using the release source tar ball? Please try the git repo's master branch as much has changed with R since then.

If I pass this resulting object as the second argument to registration$AddCommand then I do not get an error.  However, there doesn’t seem to be any way to point the ‘_p_itk__simple__Command’ object to my function or otherwise convert my function to a ‘_p_itk__simple__Command’ type.

(the example scripts cause the same error when I run them now)
