Thank you very much. This worked including generating .chm file. The resulting package is installable under R GUI on Windows XP, which is sufficient for me. Let me point out that I did not succeed to install any package (including the standard ones like rpart) on Windows using R CMD INSTALL <package>, although I have Rtools and perl installed, running and in the path. The error message for windows binary package rpart from CRAN is: Error in Rdinfo(RdFiles[i]) : missing/empty \name field in 'E:/R/rpart/man/rpart.Rd.gz Rd files must have a non-empty \name. > >4.

This also produced a package installable by the standard procedure under Windows GUI. Thank you for pointing this out. (Again, R CMD INSTALL does not work for the resulting package.) All the best, Petr. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
