I too have reverted to 2.9.2 on Win XP because I find html help to be 
far less convenient than the compiled CHM help I had before. CHM help is
so much easier because the Contents, Index and Search panels make it 
easy to *see* all the items defined for a package, and I get a separate 
help window for each package.
I very much appreciate the efforts of the R-core team to move R forward,
but I think the change in help is a step back.
