At some point in the future the package?info page will be able to be generated automatically, and I imagine it will end up containing the package info you saw. ? It would make sense for help(package="boot", help_type = "html") to give the same result.
Alternatively, I was also experimenting with help(package="boot", help_type = "pdf") to call a formatted help of a package, but this too fell back to text, although I would have expected it to pop up [1]. Would it make sense to make the command do so in the future? Thank you Liviu [1] http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/boot/boot.pdf
