Agreed... right now, the R documentation points to a straightforward, one-line way to download and install packages from the R command line, but not to a similarly straightforward way to view a package's README content (as far as I can tell). ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
