Dear r-bugs,
I think I may have uncovered a bug in the file "R-intro.info.gz"
When running the "info R-intro" command on our Ubuntu 7.10 server,
on which R 2.6.1 is installed, everything works fine until
I try to access the node named "The ellipsis argument (...)",
and then I observe the following error:
Cannot find node (/usr/share/info/R-intro.info.gz) \
The ellipsis argument (..'.
I have done some quick investigation, and it seems that the
parentheses around the ellipsis (...) may be the problem,
I edited my copy of "/usr/share/info/R-intro.info.gz"
replacing the (...) with "..." so the character count
in the file would remain the same, and would not require
re-indexing, and found that the result operated as expected,
and I can now read the Node: The ellipsis argument "..."
I hope this may be of some help.
Best regards,
Lawson Hanson
