R help - Jul 2004 - LaTeX errors

Hello again,

Having successfully mastered the creation of fairly unsophisticated print 
methods, I have encountered the dreaded LaTeX error, i.e.:

* checking concord-manual.tex ... ERROR
LaTeX errors when creating DVI version.
This typically indicates Rd problems.

As I have no idea what these errors might be, I wondered if there is any way 
to cozen such information out of whatever program is creating the DVI version.

Feel free to ignore any garbage beneath this line.

Well, LaTeX is creating the DVI version.
And yes, there is a way. Check out the file

concord.Rcheck/concord-manual.log

for any error messages. Probably at least one of your Rd files has at 
least one entry that causes LaTeX to fail  ...
