Hi all

Apologies if this is a trivial question- I have searched the lists and the 
online help files etc but have not managed to find anything. I recently 
downloaded the latest version of R, which has the help type set to htmlhelp as 
default (according to http://127.0.0.1:18380/library/utils/html/help.html)

I would very much like to be able to access the help files when I am offline by 
typing ?topic etc as I used to with the previous R version. Any suggestions?


Yes, just type ?topic and your web brwoser opens and displays the help file. Note that the address beginning "http://127.0.0.1"; is on your local machine, hence you can stay offline.

Thanks
