Having almost written a Tcl program to convert S help to Rd format, I have one problem that I have failed to solve after reading 'R-exts'. Is there a tag something like '\item' that works in a similar way but doesn't have to be after an '\arguments' or '\value' tag? I'm trying to include sections on 'MODEL PARAMETERS' and 'DESIGN PARAMETERS', but Rdconv is dropping all the info after the section title when I convert the result to HTML. Other than that, the program appears to convert the files with only a few whiffy bits where font commands appear, and I can probably solve those. Thanks for any suggestions from Rd gurus.

Thanks for any suggestions from Rd gurus.You can have all `standard' lists in Rd as well: \itemize unnumbered lists \enumerate numbered lists \describe description lists The R sources have several examples where these are used. [The fact that \arguments and \value are specific \itemize lists, in some sense, is mostly historical.] -k -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- 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 !)

Hi. Is there any way to reduce the size of postscript output from R? I have just discovered that the same plot done on Splus 5.1 (on Solaris) is about 900k compared to roughly 6.6mb on R-1.2.0 (on Solaris). I produced this plot the same way on both platforms (except for "font=3" on Splus and "family="Times"" on R): postscript(file="file.eps",onefile=FALSE,horizontal=FALSE,paper="special",width=6,height=6,font=3) .plot plot plot (lots of points (pch="."), roughly 30,000 per plot * 9 plots).... dev.off() I also tried using "dev.copy2eps()" on R, but that didn't change the size of the resulting file. I'd hate to email a such a huge file. Any thoughts about what to do? Thanks so much!

Something like % I hate all capitals \section{Model Parameters}{ These are one of the following \itemize{ \item bla text \item blo more text \item blu still more } } or rather % I hate all capitals \section{Model Parameters}{ These are one of the following \describe{ \item{bla}{text about bla} \item{blo}{more text........} \item{blu}{still some about blu ...} } } will work, I hope.
