[R] Too strange that I cannot install several packages
I did answer this question quite a few weeks ago. You then continued to email me directly off list asking the exact question you posted below and at that time I gave you the answer on how to solve. Your unwillingness to do even the basic study on R clogs this list unnecessarily. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Ratner PhD [mailto:br at dmstat1.com] Sent: Monday, April 10, 2017 2:13 PM To: Doran, Harold <HDoran at air.org> Cc: r-help at r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] Too strange that I cannot install several packages Dear Harold: If you do not want to answer my questions, then do not reply.

[R] Too strange that I cannot install several packages
For a base-R installation, you can print out multiple help pages (function indices) like so:> for(i in 1:length(sessionInfo()$basePkgs)) {print(library(help = sessionInfo()$basePkgs[i], character.only = TRUE)) } HTH, Bill.
