Thank you very much, this works. But I am very surprised that it is
not the
default. Having chosen html help during installation, I would have
expected
this to be active without having to change an option.
Yes, it should have been, but there was a bug in the installer, and the
preference indicated there was ignored. This is why it's useful to have
people doing testing during the beta test period: things like this are
easy to fix, but they need to be noticed first.
And let me add:
The whole statistics department has been on two pre-release versions
(beta and release-candidate) and nobody reported any error. The
installer problem has not been found because I installed from sources
anyway. This shows it makes sense to have more than just 400+ beta
testers. ;-)
