Description
I am receiving an error calling `make_tile`, where "viewer" does not seem to be a variable associated with `getOption`. I have `options(help_type="html")` set with no problem and it uses my default browser.
**Session Info**
R version 4.4.1 (2024-06-14 ucrt)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64
Running under: Windows 11 x64 (build 22621)
**Error**
Error in viewer("temp_hexsession/hexout.html") :
could not find function "viewer"

Research direction
Start by inspecting the make_tile call path, especially how getOption("viewer") and options(help_type="html") are used, then reproduce the viewer("temp_hexsession/hexout.html") error on the reported Windows and R setup. Done means make_tile no longer fails because viewer cannot be found and the generated HTML can be opened as intended.
