How to actually view them is something we need to carefully consider: e.g., an alternative would be to integrate viewing pdf into our current HTML help system. I am not saying that this is a good idea though as I think we want to move to something that can render HTML and be controlled from R. -k -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
