Mozilla 1.2
You could just use the `browser' option to help.start to select Mozilla
1.2, or options("browser").

I should be more specific here. It works if you use Mozilla 1.2 to go
directly to the SearchEngine.html page in your $R_HOME. But
if you use help.start() from R, you typically use Mozilla 1.1 from
fink (the GTK version), which does not work. A quick hack is not to
say help.start(), but to say
system(paste("open -a
Mozilla",paste(Sys.getenv("R_HOME"),"/doc/html/index.html",sep="")))
This works for me and gives me the Carbon Mozilla 1.2. This does NOT
work
with Navigator, OmniWeb, and fortunately also not with MSIE.
What also works is defining a script /usr/local/bin/netscape with
#!/bin/sh
open -a Mozilla /usr/local/lib/R/doc/html/index.html
and then using help.start().

The R search engine (at least the one at http://stat.ethz.ch/R-alpha/R-patched/doc/html/) works again in Mozilla 1.2, released today (at least on OS X and with JDK 1.4.1).
