PBSmodelling (version 2.67.266)

showVignettes: Display Vignettes for Packages

Description

Create a GUI that displays all vignettes for installed packages. The user can choose to view the source file for building the vignette or the final .pdf file.

Usage

showVignettes(package)

Arguments

package

character string specifying package name that exists in the user's R library

Details

If the argument package is not specified, the function will look for vignettes in all packages installed on the user's system. The user can choose to view the source file for building the vignette (usually *.Rnw or *.Snw files) or the final build from the source code (*.pdf).

showVignettes uses the PBSmodelling function openFile to display the .Rnw and .pdf files using programs that the system associates with these extensions. On systems that do not support file extension associations, the function setPBSext can temporarily set a command to associate with an extension.
