[R] installation on Mac OS X

[Wiener, Matthew Charles]

I'm also using the Mac OSX/unix version of R.  I went into the doc
subdirectory of the installation and dragged index.html to the dock.  Now I
can get help up by clicking on that icon (this may not get help in the
browser when you type help(x) in the R session, but I've never gotten used
to doing it that way).

For good measure, I copied the R logo from cran and replaced the standard
"web page" icon I got when I put index.html on the dock.

Hope this helps,

Matt

Well I finally managed to get Xdarwin and R running on my Mac under 
OSX. Having turned my Mac into a UNIX box is a bit disconcerting but 
. . .
My problem now is how to get help to run - either as html or via R. I 
am sure it is my stupidity but any suggestions would be most welcome.

By the way if I run Stefano's OS9 R binary (current version) I can't 
seem to get the eps of any  graphics into my Latex program ( using 
graphics.sty or graphix.sty). The text goes wonky. Has anyone else 
noticed this problem - and if so is there a fix?

These are of course minor grips about a wonderful language.
