Potentially, many comments could disrupt the flow of the help page. I think it might be better to only have links to the comments which themselves are located below and even that might be too disruptive. Also, from an implementation viewpoint this would seem to add a significant complication particularly when updating the help pages with new versions of the help pages so I think it might be better to just follow the formats of PHP and MySQL and keep it simple. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
