I thought the usual logic was that you might put graphs and images into a
vignette, and you might refer to the vignette in an Rd help file, but you
would not put the graphs into the help because ? access to the page cannot
assume that you actual have a graphics device. Of course, examples in the Rd
file can generate the graphs.

My understanding was that one can require graphics for a package that does
require graphics, right?
No, there's no simple way to require particular hardware, or particular
user options (e.g. options(help_type="text") would mean no HTML). The
startup code for a package might be able to check for the hardware and
abort if it is unavailable, but a user could change help type at any time.

Subject: [Rd] How to document man/*.Rd pages with images?
Hi,
I¹m trying to figure out how to put images into my package¹s help
documentation. I¹ve gotten to the point where I can put the images in
the
/inst/doc/ directory. I have also gotten to the point where I have
package
checks without any warnings. I couldn¹t find the terms ³picture,²
³image,²
or ³graphic² in a text search within the Writing R Extensions: 2
Writing R
documentation files
<http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html#Writing-R-
documentation-f
iles>
I tried a couple of LaTeX guesses, but they lead to the following
errors on
check:
Warning: /LAB/SRM/PROGS/R_PACKAGES/Ralign/man/Ralign139.Rd:3:
unexpected
UNKNOWN '\usepackage'
Warning: /LAB/SRM/PROGS/R_PACKAGES/Ralign/man/Ralign139.Rd:36: unknown
macro
'\includegraphics'
What is the right way to do this?
Thanks,
Sean
