An ‘interesting’ aside is that in Monterey (12.6.2), a blank window
appears when I click on ‘PDF’ from within the RStudio help system.
Within the R GUI, there is not a problem.  In either case, typing
  vignette('concordance', package='survival’)
in the command line window works fine.  Kevin, does this work
for you?
