Do most packages come with pdf versions of the help files ? If yes,
how to I
access the entire pdf file to be able to print it ? Is there a
standard
command for that ?
There may be one but I don't know it if there is. The pdf files to
which you refer are usually in the doc directory for each package (and
can be found at CRAN as well). For example on my standard nstallation
of R2.12 the pdf describing the gsubfn package is found it in:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.12/Resources/library/gsubfn/
doc/gsubfn.pdf
Each OS is different but once you find the root of R's installation
there should be "library" and package sub-directories with "doc" sub-
sub-directories. Not all packages have such a directory. The first one
I looked in was lattice and I could not find one.
