Michael,

can you give an example for a page with title "HTML Help"? I only found the "R Help for package foo" version during a quick inspection of a few examples.
Sure:
library(vcd); ?mosaic
library(heplots); ?heplot
library(car); ?Anova
library(rgl); ?shade3d # --- I believe up until just the latest version (rgl_0.81.708) I downloaded from R-Forge

Here's my sessionInfo:

> sessionInfo()
R version 2.7.2 (2008-08-25)
i386-pc-mingw32

locale:
LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252

attached base packages:
[1] grid stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods [8] base
other attached packages:
[1] vcd_1.1-1 colorspace_0.95 MASS_7.2-44 rgl_0.81.708 [5] heplots_0.8-0 car_1.2-8

I often have quite a few help files active, and it is much more convenient to navigate among
them if the window has an informative title.

If this is simple to test for in the build process, can/should this be tested for (with a warning) or even enforced/automatically generated in the scripts?
