also works. the empty tab is only shown for R manual pages. it doesn't matter 
if i use ?ls or help("ls") or a link from the help search. feels like R 
doesn't start its internal http server or fails to communicate, but the R 
installation remains untouched.

 /opt/rkward/libexec/qt4/Library/Frameworks/QtWebKit.framework
