Hello experienced R-ers, I'm converting from S-Plus Win 98SE to SuSE 8.1, R 1.62 and have run into som problems. 1) When I use help.start() netscape comes up OK and all links are accessible except "Search Engine & Keywords" : search doesn't work and the keywords from base doesn't respond either. ?command within R gets netscape running and works OK. 2) I haven't been able to get Renviron.site, Rprofile.site, .Renviron, and .Rprofile to work and affect my sessions. To the best of my knowledge I have handled these files according to "Invoking R under Unix" in Rintro. .First within R works OK and this is the way I customize R at the present time. Hopefully someone out there realizes what I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance Sincerely Fredrik Lundgren

No idea: do the examples in ?Startup work for you? Please learn to wrap the lines in email messages. -- Brian D.

Hi, Further on Fredrik's question, I have encountered the same difficulty on MAC OS X. Neither will clicking on any link work. None of the browsers seem to work (Safari, Camino, Mozilla, Netscape, IE). I've tried to set enableSearch tp true, but that does not help either. From within R, after help.start() search does not work, but e.g. help(eigen) does work.
