Dear Cei, Thanks for pointing out the changed behaviour of openVignette(). You're not missing anything obvious I think. In R for Windows, there's a drop-down menu item for the edgeR User's Guide. In Unix or Mac, however, the easiest way is following the html package help starting from help.start(), and that requires quite a few clicks to get to it. So I've just now committed through a new function edgeRUsersGuide() to the release version of edgeR, which will work just like the corresponding function in limma. If you wait a day or two for Biconductor to rebuild the package, you get the new function when you reinstall edgeR.
