\begin{Description}\relax
Print a 2-column index table with \dQuote{names} and titles from given
R documentation files to a given output file or connection.  The
titles are nicely formatted between two column positions (typically 25
and 72, respectively).
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
Rdindex(RdFiles, outFile = "", type = NULL,
        width = 0.9 * getOption("width"), indent = NULL)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{RdFiles}] a character vector specifying the Rd files to be used
for creating the index, either by giving the paths to the files, or
the path to a single directory with the sources of a package.
\item[\code{outFile}] a connection, or a character string naming the output
file to print to.  \code{""} (the default) indicates output is to
the console.
\item[\code{type}] a character string giving the documentation type of the Rd
files to be included in the index, or \code{NULL} (the default).
The type of an Rd file is typically specified via the
\code{\bsl{}docType} tag; if \code{type} is \code{"data"}, Rd files
whose \emph{only} keyword is \code{datasets} are included as well.
\item[\code{width}] a positive integer giving the target column for wrapping
lines in the output.
\item[\code{indent}] a positive integer specifying the indentation of the
second column.  Must not be greater than \code{width/2}, and
defaults to \code{width/3}.
\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Details}\relax
If a name is not a valid alias, the first alias (or the empty string
if there is none) is used instead.
