[R] how to change default help settings from factory default html

[Katya Mauff]

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?
 
Thanks
Katya
