Making HTML Help files in Version 64.0 - R-help

Tue, Apr 13, 1999 9:37 AM #

Hi,
I am having trouble making the HTML help files for the installed packages in
version 64.0
For example in 63.3 this is expected behavior:

_
platform   Windows
arch       x86
os         Win32
system     x86, Win32
status     Beta
status.rev 0
major      0
minor      63.3
year       1999
month      March
day        6
language   R

However, in version 64.0, I am presented with the following:

_
platform   Windows
arch       x86
os         Win32
system     x86, Win32
status     Beta
status.rev 0
major      0
minor      64.0
year       1999
month      April
day        8
language   R

1.
I am not sure what I am supposed to enter at this juncture. The behavior is the
same for
make.packages.html()

Anyone know what is happening?
Partha.

Well, it does say those functions are experimental. The problem
is that system.file has changed: the second arg needs to be named,
as in system.file("TITLE", pkg = i)

Same in make.function.html, make.search.html.

Arghh!!! And then arghh!! The new 'platform independent file

  I apologize for the inconvenience. 
  I hope to make available a solution for tomorrow (I have one
  but this time I want to test it).
