Hi, this modified version of help.start() makes it possible to store R Documentation on your (intranet) webserver. This could be necessary if you run netscape and R from different systems on one X11 display (if there is no $RHOME directory on the host running netscape). help.start() <- function (gui = "irrelevant", browser = "netscape", remote = NULL) { if (is.null(remote)) { url <- "$RHOME/html/index.html" } else { url <- paste(remote, "/html/index.html", sep = "") } cat("If", browser, " is already running,\tit is *not* restarted,\n", "and you must switch to its window.\nOtherwise, be patient..\n") system(paste(browser, " -remote \"openURL(", url, ")\" 2>/dev/null || ", browser, " ", url, " &", sep = "")) } Then make an appropriate link from $RHOME into your web servers /htdocs tree and type help.start(remote='http://your.www.server/R') A.Gebhardt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Albrecht Gebhardt email: albrecht.gebhardt at uni-klu.ac.at Institut fuer Mathematik Tel. : (++43 463) 2700/837 Universitaet Klagenfurt Fax : (++43 463) 2700/834 Villacher Str. 161 WWW : http://www-stat.uni-klu.ac.at/~agebhard A-9020 Klagenfurt, Austria ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help 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 !)
