help.start()
Yes, thanks. What I need is a Thunderbird plug-in that understands R code.

Hi, Duncan:
I'm confused:
help_start()
Error: could not find function "help_start"
Thanks,

Newbie here...just learning
Do most packages come with pdf versions of the help files
? If yes,
how to I access the entire pdf file to be able to print it
? Is there
a standard command for that ?
No, the pdf version is not normally installed. If you want
to see the
same content on a locally installed package, run
help_start()
then browse to the package. The pdf files are just concatenated
versions of all the help pages shown in that index.
You can produce the pdf using
R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf foo
where foo is a directory holding the source code to the package.
Alternatively, as others have suggested, just look at the
PDF on CRAN.
