I have just updated the CRAN with the latest build of R 150. The archive also contains all the base and recommended packages. It will be mirrored in a couple of days or so. Contributed packages will follow in few days. Stefano M. Iacus Here the Changes for version 1.5.0 Macintosh-specific changes to R ============================== rm150 ==== * using dev.off() when a user close a windows instead of killing directly the device * changed MPWBuild to take care of changes in the src/include directory * fixed a bug with path length (Thanks to T.Lumley) * fixed a problem with building help files. In particular, html help files now have correct links * added system() functionality under MacOS X. When R is running under MacOS X, it is now possibile to run BSD shell commands via the system() R command. Very limited at the moment but working. * fixed the problem with the error message: "negative length vectors are not allowed". Now you should not experiment this anymore. * MacZip not needed anymore. Note for developers: -------------------- For the people who want to build R from sources: you should the replace the file src/macintosh/MPWBuild with the one you find in this prebuilt distribution of R for Macintosh. See details in the file README_MAC.TXT inside rm150 folder. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-announce mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
