Faheem,
help(some.topic, offline=TRUE)
should do if you also install r-base-latex under Debian -- as the latex files are only useful for offline viewing, and nobody else ever asked :) I decided to move them into a seperate package to keep the size on r-base-core down.
Thanks. However, I'm now getting a weird problem trying to print the help
file called Random.
help.search("Random")
gives me
Random.user(base) User-supplied Random Number Generation
Random(base) Random Number Generation
...
Now I get
help("Random",offline=TRUE)
Error in help("Random", offline = TRUE) : No documentation for `Random' in
specified packages and libraries:
you could try `help.search("Random")'
But Random.user works fine with identical syntax. What is wrong?
(Almost) nothing. We have had a discussion on the R-devel list starting on July 26 with subject "Random.Rd". Just investigate the thread in the mailing list archives.
