Dear R colleagues,

From the point of the costs e. g. I had to learn writing help files in a TeX-like language. But I'm the typical Word user. My last TeX writings were done in the 1990s! If I'm changing only a letter in a source file (r-file or help file) I've to build a new package. Seeing the results in my eyes this is a very expansive way. It's easier to me to write those files in HTML and to change the HTML source code. I don't need help files in Rd format.
You can make things a whole lot easier by using prompt() to write the skeletons of the .Rd files. Then you have a ready-made template for
your function or data and only need to fill in the details. Once you try this, you'll find it's not really any different than HTML markup. ?prompt ______________________________________________ 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.
