Help file template should precede any source code

Here is a sample .Rd file (the file that get made into R help file) offered by Amanda Blackford. To make your own under Windows, you just:

• Edit the .Rd file to refer to your function or source code.

• Open a command prompt in windows (Start --> Run --> type in 'cmd'). This opens a black screen (looks like old DOS prompts).

• Change to the directory where your .Rd file is. For example, myfunction.Rd, under c:/Oncology Research, so

  cd "c:\Oncology Research"

• Then type
  R CMD Rdconv -t=html -o=myfunction.html myfunction.Rd

You will change 'myfunction' to whatever you name your Rd file. When you're done, an HTML file should be created in that directory.
