read.table and strip.white

[...]

Looks like a general problem with a backslashes in "winhelp" (?).

Which system of help, and if text help which pager?  (I'm not
on Windows here to check, but the text file looks fine on Unix. My
guess is that this a pager bug.)

The Windows Help system (R-1.0.1, NT4.0):
  help(read.table, winhelp=TRUE)

Text and HTML Help are OK.
