[Rd] [Wishlist] to uniform help(x) and library(help=x) behaviours relating "htmlhelp" option (PR#9613)
Full_Name: Luca Braglia Version: R version 2.4.1 (2006-12-18) OS: Debian Lenny (testing) Submission from: (NULL) (82.61.142.240) Some options of mine:> options("htmlhelp")$htmlhelp [1] TRUE> options("browser")$browser [1] "/usr/bin/urxvt -rv -e elinks" I run R under X windows system: if I command help(foo) foo manual page is printed, correctly, under elinks (my textual browser); but if I command library(help=asd) asd package summary page is printed in R console. I would like library(help=asd) to be printed in my browser too, if possible: strictly speaking --> add htmlhelp = getOption("htmlhelp") in library arguments to be used only if "help" option is specified.
