Hi,

I frequently need to open multiple help pages in R, which requires the
start of multiple R sessions. I am wondering if there is a way to
invoke the help page from the command line just like 'man'.

I haven't been paying attention, but are you working on a machine with a windowing system + browser?

If so, set your help files to be seen in the browser:

R> option(htmlhelp=TRUE)

next time you ask for some ?help, it should pop up a browser window.

Good enough?
