You don't have to be connected to the internet. You just need an R session running. You'll noticed on first invocation, R will start some web server, eg: R> ?sort starting httpd help server ... done And your web browser will open to: http://127.0.0.1:XXXXX/library/base/html/sort.html Where XXXX is some random port that the current R process has some type of minimal web server running that is used to display the help files ... this assumes that you have options(help_type='html'), or some such. No external internet connection necessary. -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology | Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center | Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
