Default browser was Re: interpolation to abscissa

Readers,

I have looked at various documents hosted on the web site; I couldn't
find anything on interpolation. So I started r and accessed the help
(help.start()). (by the way is it possible to configure r to open help
in opera instead of firefox?)

Look at options()$browser and reconfigure if necessary.

 > options()$browser
[1] "/usr/bin/open"

or...
 > options("browser")
$browser
[1] "/usr/bin/open

Which means that the default is set by my system configuration. I had  
earlier
followed some advice offered me in a warning and changed the default  
pdf viewer
configuration, which should be an easy-to-rejigger example:

 > options("eps_view"=  "/Applications/Preview.app")
