Uwe,
That gave me the same error like CMD install
> install.packages("C:/Temp/mypack_1.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")
install.packages("C:/Temp/mypack_1.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")

:

is there a way to skip the Rd part? This is for private use only and there is
no help or data files.
Thank you.

install.packages("C:/Temp/mypack_1.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")
seems to be what you want.
