[BioC] Bioconductor commands in Unix online documentation re quest

[Warnes, Gregory R]

Attached is a Unix shell script that will provide access to the R help pages
via the Unix command line.  The usage information is:

Usage: Rman [-p|--package PACKAGE] [ TOPIC ] 

Show R help information for TOPIC.  If PACKAGE is specified, the TOPIC
will be searched for within PACKAGE.  If PACKAGE is specified but not
TOPIC, help information for the package PACKAGE will be displayed.

Example:  Rman -p mva prcomp   

I hope this helps,

-Greg
