make.search.html(lib.loc=.Library)

Arguments

verbose

logical. If true, print out a message. For use to explain a delay when called from other functions.

lib.loc

character. List of libraries to be included.

Details

Only packages in the system library .Library are included by default, as cross-library links only work on this platform.

Note
