    Hi,

    packages from Bioconductor project have vignettes, which are pdf files.  When I try to open one from RKWard help browser, it doesn't launch any pdf viewer, and I just get a window full of garbage.  My work-around is to run help.start and specify firefox as the browser.  Is there a way to make RKWard handle the pdf files properly, though?

    Thanks.

    Yury

      Apologies for the long delay. That's a bug in the RKWard help browser, and I see no other workaround in current released versions of RKWard.

      However, this should now be fixed in the development versions on both the KDE 3 and KDE 4 branches. If you would like to take a look without waiting for the next official release, see http://p.sf.net/rkward/svn .

      Regards
      Thomas
