Linking to resource files installed with R-Instat #26

In the help menu in R-Instat I assume we will soon be adding to the resources. In particular, as we prepare guides they should all be included, presumably as pdf files?

We have started, with Help > Guides > Case Study Guide and also Glossary.
Could we add the tutorial guides - made into pdf from the github versions? Also the installation guide perhaps? Then I will complete the two current climatic guides and also the tweaking guide!

We will soon also have the R-packages guide as a separate entry.

I suggest it is important to have these guides within the software, so users without internet access, still have them all.

The next step is what I am working on now, namely the online help system. Now, here I would like to hyperlink to these guides. This seems possible in the help system. You can give relative, or absolte paths. We don't want absolute paths, but I assume we can give a relative path. He is the information from helpNdoc:

"For a relative part the file must be in a path relative to the main documentation folder. For example setting the relative path to "resources\myfile.txt", so the file must be in the resources sub-folder of the main document file".

Could we start trying this with the next update?
