[Rd] Makevars or congiure for multi platforms

[Tadashi Kadowaki]

Hi, Laurent and Tobias

Thanks a lot.

I could make configure script and upload it to r-forge.
https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/pdf2/
It still works only on mac by default.
For Linux and Windows, it needs additional option like
-----
R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars="R_INTERNAL_HEADER_DIR=/path/to/src/include"
pdf2/pkg
-----
,where /path/to/src/include is the directory in the R source.
I didn't check it for Linux and Windows...

Regards,

Tadashi Kadowaki
