Using as above:
\code{\link{anova}}
the html help file directs to
file:///home/adi/myRlibrary/stats/html/anova.html
I hope it is actually ../../stats/html/anova.html and the browser is interpreting that as a full URL.
instead of file:///usr/lib/R/library/stats/html/anova.html
But at run time help.start() creates links into a subdirectory of tempdir(). As in
help.start()
I got it. Perhaps it would be useful to have another startup option, something like: options(htmlLinksResolve=TRUE) that one could use in the .First() function from .Rprofile I tried using help.start() in .Rprofile, but it throws a (probably obvious) error: Error: could not find function "help.start" For my personal purposes, all questions have been answered though. Thank you very much, Adrian
