Following the beginning tutorial, I typed help.start() and was given a
choice of browsers. I picked chrome but got back that chrome is not found.
I cannot seem to change or get rid of it now.
I looked at /etc/R/Renviron but don't see anywhere to set browser
(R_BROWSER = ${R_BROWSER ...etc) - nothing about chrome.
I tried starting as "R_BROWSER= R" - same thing.
How do I change the default browser, for instance, to firefox? (Using Linux
Mint xfce)
Thanks.

?options
options("browser") <- ## whatever
If you don't know how to use the Help system, read the Intro to R tutorial
-- ot type ?help at the command prompt in interactive mode fpr the help for
help.

I should have added ?help.start tells you what I did already. So you should make it your first order of business to learn to use R's Help system. -- Bert On Sat, Sep 1, 2012 at 2:39 PM, Carilda Thomas <carilda.thomas@gmail.com>wrote:> Following the beginning tutorial, I typed help.start() and was given a > choice of browsers.
