Subject: [Rd] In R for Windows RGui,
 plain text help files open up at bottom of help file
Message-ID: <CAOwKfPQ5abATMa6xqq6f1ssrAzQ8PUop2G3LaayAVKGCtks86g@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

When using the R for Windows installer, I typically choose a
customized startup and
specify "Plain text" (rather than "HTML help") as my preferred help
style. In R-3.3.0,
R-3.2.5, and (IIRC) R-3.2.4 (but not R-3.2.3), the plain text help
files that open up when
using `help()` or `?` do so with the text 'scrolled' down all the way
to the bottom.

It's a minor inconvenience, but probably worth mentioning.

In case it helps, here's my sessionInfo:

R version 3.3.0 (2016-05-03)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)
Running under: Windows 7 x64 (build 7601) Service Pack 1

locale:
[1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252
[2] LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252
[3] LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252
[4] LC_NUMERIC=C
[5] LC_TIME=English_United States.1252

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base

loaded via a namespace (and not attached):

Cheers,
