Help Window using StatET in Eclipse

Question

Hi All,

I have been getting into R recently and have been using the StatET plugin for Eclipse. When I search for help, it prints the 'contents' of the help to the console. I am hoping to have the help open up in a new window, similar to what happens when in R itself. I am hoping this is just a setting.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I seem to recall that I had a similar problem when I upgraded R and StatET. Perhaps adding the following line to "RProfile.site" will help. (note RProfile.site for me is currently located in "C:\Program Files\R-2.11.1\etc")

options(help_type="html")
