Subject: starting html help for a package?
Dear all
Shouldn't this start the html help for the chosen package?
> help(package="boot", help_type = "html")
Instead, the text version is displayed in less (I believe). However, I
have no issues to start the html help with the following.
> help.start()
starting httpd help server ... done
If 'xdg-open' is already running, it is *not* restarted, and you must
switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient ...
The help page states:
"If for some reason HTML help is unavailable (see
?startDynamicHelp?), plain text help will be used instead."
However,
> ?startDynamicHelp
No documentation for 'startDynamicHelp' in specified packages and libraries:
you could try '??startDynamicHelp'
Am I doing anything wrong? Thank you
Liviu
