After poking around some more I found the problem. The shortcut name
in PATH should be c:\progra~1\htmlhe~1 instead of c:\progra~1\htmhe~1.
Don't know how that happened, but thanks for pointing me in the right
direction.

The Windows path can handle the full name, there's no value in using the short 8.3 name. So c:\Program Files\HTML Help Workshop would be a better choice.

Hi,

I am getting the following error when using R CMD INSTALL ever
since I
upgraded to R-2.7.1:

hhc: not found
CHM compile failed: HTML Help Workshop not intalled?

As indicated, the package is installed but without CHM help
files. I
have downloaded the latest version of Rtools and I have tried
uninstalling and reinstalling HTML Help Workshop. I have also
tried
rebuilding the package several times. I was able to build and
install
the package without problems with R-2.7.0.
I believe that's a warning rather than an error, but what it
indicates
is that your hhc help compiler is not on the current PATH.  If you
just
type "hhc" at the same command line where you were running "R CMD
INSTALL", you should see

Usage:   hhc <filename>
     where <filename> = an HTML Help project file
Example: hhc myfile.hhp

but I'm guessing you'll see

hhc: not found

To fix this, edit the PATH, and make sure the directory holding
hhc.exe
is on it.

Any ideas? Thanks.
