similar to: text rather than html help in Windows

R-2.0.0, WinNT / WinXP: options(chmhelp=TRUE) ?dnorm # does not work! ?Normal # works! Looks like calling compiled html help does not work for aliases, but only for the title of help pages... And a quick fix without changing the design is to change lines 136-137 in .../src/library/utils/R/help.R as follows: - err <- .C("Rchtml", hlpfile, topic, - err =

I cannot seem to get compiled help working with XP in neither 1.6 or 1.61. The ReadMe.rw1061 specifies: (ii) Compiled HTML files. Set this as the default by options(chmhelp=TRUE) or for individual help items by help(topic, chmhelp=TRUE). Full text search is available from the Search tab. According to Microsoft, to make use of this you will need to have IE3 or later installed and a recent version

Hello list, I have encountered a problem trying to save graphs using the R-graphics menu: File|Save as. The menu suggests that files may be saved as either Metafile, Postscript, pdf, png, bmp, jpeg.

Hi, I have a problem with my the R help system. I have been searching through the help archives but I can't find anything about it and I don't know how to specify my search better. When I type for instance "?hist", just the next command line prompt shows but nothing actually happens. There is no help window coming up. I already tried reinstalling R (2.2.1, windows XP) but that

Hi all, This is a Noob question but I couldn't find anything on the syntax page about making a link that opens in a hew window (and two years of email archives was too much). For eg. with "This is an [example link](http://example.com/)" where do I put target="_blank" or its equivalent so it opens in a new page? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx Tony

Assume that I have the dataframe "data1", which is listed at the end of this message. I want count the number of lines that each person has for each year. For example, the person with ID=213 has 15 entries (NinYear) for 1953. The following bit of code calculates NinYear: for (i in 1:length(data1$ID)) { data1$NinYear[i] <- length(data1[data1$Year==data1$Year[i] &

Hello, as I just spent a (too long) while searching for a way how to persistantly switch back the help display routines from chm to text, here a small documentation how to do that with the windows version of R. The windows installer asks which help type you want to use, I wanted to test the chm version -- which I didn't like. If you after installation want to switch back, you have to edit

Dear R-users, When I call Rterm from cygwin, I have no options but typing the exact syntax the first time.

Hi all, Here's a curosity I ran into since upgrading to 1.6.2 (precompiled for Windows). When using the chm help I get the following warning. I saw a recent post regarding this as a new warning (``dyn.load warning message in R1.6.2 on Windows XP'' dated 1/28/03), but not in the context of the help system. The warning only appears once and does not prevent the chm file from
