This seems a bit too simplistic but, does it make any difference if your
file is .pdf rather than .PDF?

Dear Mathieu,
thank you for your assurance that my manual-reading-skills are on
par! ;-)
The thing is, though, that I can't get it to work. In the index of
the help pages, it reads: ''Read overview or browse directory". The
'browse directory' option does not work. When clicked on the 'Read
overview' option, the following text appears:
"Vignettes of package Read.isi
Sorry, the package contains no vignette meta-information or index.
Please browse the directory."
So, clearly, some links are missing. Should I manually create an
index file? If so, how do I specify the link to the .PDF file?
I hope someone can help[.
Thank in advance,
Rense Nieuwenhuis

Dear Rense,
The way you included your pdf file in your package is appropriate.
Normally, when invocking "help.start()" and going to your package
link, you should have two links overview and directory where your
pdf file should be located.
Best,
Mathieu

Deal all,
new as I am to developing packages for R-Project, I apologize on
beforehand for questions that are too obvious. I am trying to 'add' a
PDF document containing some detailed information to a package.
The way I understand the Rexts.pdf document, I should add my .PDF
document to the /inst/doc/ folder, and links to the files should be
build automatically. However, after building it on MacOSX (10.4)
using 'R CMD build' and checking it using 'R CMD check', no links
seems to be present. All checks are OK, but no vignette or whatever
appears in the help-files of the package.
Clearly, I'm missing something. I would really appreciate some
pointers on how to integrate an 'additional' pdf file to my package.
Thanks in advance,
Rense Nieuwenhuis
