Dear developers,
I want to suggest a tiny documentation improvement for R-admin in
subsection 3.1 ('Building from source') of 'Installing R under Windows'.
Although it is mentioned in subsection 3.1.3 that one has to enter
‘R_HOME/src/gnuwin32’ before running 'make all recommended', I think it
would be favourable to note this already in subsection 3.1.2, where the
first 'make' commands pop up.
Please find attached a corresponding patch for rev. 51148.
Thanks,
Martin

If you are not using a tarball you need to obtain copies of the
recommended packages from @acronym{CRAN}. Put the @file{.tar.gz} files
in @fi...@var{r_home}/src/library/Recommended} and run @code{make
