Dear R.app developers
Would be a nice feature if one could change the default help
browser to an external application, e.g. Safari or Firefox.
I'm not sure this is an improvement, but it's easy to do:
Thank you, Duncan. I think it could be an improvement on my system
because the R Rd browser fails to link to follow external URL's in
the most recent MacOS incarnation. You can copy and paste to a
browser, but you get failure and sometimes you get freezes.
We would appreciate if you could report that, otherwise it cannot be
fixed.
Thanks,

1. Create your own "print.help_files_with_topic" function, copied
from the private one in utils:
print.help_files_with_topic <- utils:::print.help_files_with_topic
2. Edit it so it doesn't replace the browser when .Platform$GUI ==
"AQUA" && type == "html".
That's it --- now it will respect your choice of getOption
("browser").
Works for me. Thanks for the advice.
