[R] gridExtra question

[Felipe Carrillo]

It looks like the list of packages is not refreshing on my pc because
If I go to packages > install packages I don't see it there next to 'gridBase'
but I went to the CRAN website and there it is right next to 'gridBase'. 
I had to manually download the Windows binary from there, saved it to my
desktop and then "installed packages from local zip files"
