Hello, Apologies in advance if this should be in R-devel, not Rhelp. I did read through the R-devel thread started by Gabor Grothendieck in September of this year - I am getting the exact same error using a new computer that has XP installed, not vista, complaining that the file hhc.exe is not found. I have downloaded the hhc.exe to HTML Help Workshop dir in Program Files but it says that there is a newer version (apparently not called hhc.exe) and seems to refuse to see the hhc.exe. On my old computer, also running XP, I was able to compile the CHM files.
I can successfully build the package with the appropriate non-html help files and I had resigned myself to leaving it as-is for the windows version, until I noticed that when calling up help in windows, instead of simply bringing up the non-html help files it actually prints an error message: Warning message: In print.help_files_with_topic("C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-26~1.0/library/package1/chm/package1") : No CHM help for 'package1' in package 'package1' is available: the CHM file for the package is missing If nothing else, is there a way to turn off this warning in windows? Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Kristin ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
