I hope others may find this useful. I use R in many different directories. By adding the following line to the .Rprofile file: utils:::setWindowTitle(paste("-",getwd())) the titlebar of each R instance shows the directory from which it was started. I have tested this with rterm.exe and rgui.exe under Windows and with RECENT versions of R only. ----- For changing directories

I am experiencing a reproducible crash from the following statement: plot(density(rnorm(1000))) on R 1.5.1 on Windows 2000. This is a dual-processor machine with 512Mb of RAM. Please advise if further details of hardware/OS are needed. If rgui.exe is in use, the crash occurs before the plot can be displayed. If rterm.exe is in use, the plot appears, then the error (and crash). A screen

We announce the availability of the Fortran 95 module "For2R", which makes it easy to write complicated R data structures (i.e., lists of lists, matrices, dataframes, ...) from Fortran programs. By a series of subroutine calls, program outputs can be written to a file readable by R with a single "dget" function call. This facilitates automated graphics generation and other

I remember reading somewhere that locations on plots (in my case, arguments x and y for legend()) can be specified in several scales besides the usual data scale. I would like to set x and y as proportions of total plot size or something similar. Can anyone steer me to documentation on how to do it? -- Michael Prager, Ph.D. <Mike.Prager at noaa.gov> NOAA Center for

This is (correctly) filed under "non-reproducible." The corresponding notes say "solved by re-installing Windows (private comm)." I would like to clarify that this was solved by re-installing the patch known as "Windows 2000 Service Pack 2," not by reinstalling Windows itself. Perhaps my original message was not clear. I point this out because installing the

To follow up on my previous question, suppose a user R session wants to unload one workspace and load another within an R session. Is the following the correct sequence? 1. save.image() to save the current workspace as .Rdata in the current working directory. 2. rm(list=ls()) to remove everything from the workspace. 3. setcwd("xxx") to set the new working directory. 4.

I am using R 1.9.1 under Windows XP Professional. Is there any R function that returns the filesystem path from which the global environment (workspace) was loaded (and to which it will, by default, be saved)? This seems identical with the current directory, so in any given session it is not too difficult to find out by other means. But for several reasons I would like to find this out from

R 1.8.0 on Windows XP Professional. A huge THANK YOU to the R Team for this marvelous software. I am making lattice plots of oceanographic data. The usual layout does not conform to plotting conventions that marine scientists use when depth is the independent variable. Under those conventions, plots are made with the origin at the upper left, depth on the vertical axis (increasing as it

Some minor request for the R on Windows (2000) GUI version. I'm using 1.5.1 with the SDI interface. (1) When minimized, the main R window and the graphics window show as two copies of the same icon. That makes it less convenient to switch among tasks in Windows, as I often select the wrong one. Could they have different icons in the future, please? (2) I use a fixed-width Type 1 font

I probably shouldn't suggest this, because I can't volunteer to implement it. However, I bring it up in the hopes that if (1) others agree and (2) the R core group think it a good idea that a suitable volunteer will come forward. I am finding that the flood of R email messages is becoming difficult to deal with, even using filters, etc., in my email client. Would we be better

How can a random result be reproducible? You could have told us the seed in use! I've tried this ten times without a crash, on two separate machines, one XP and one 2000.

My thanks to Drs. Armstrong, Bates, Harrell, Liaw, Lumley, Prager, Schwartz, and Mr. Wang for their replies. I have pasted my original message and their replies below. After viewing http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/strd/ as suggested by Dr. Schwartz, it occurred to me that it might be educational to search for some data repositories on google. I was able to find some,though I'm sure many of

I am trying to understand why syntax used by dput() to write rownames is valid (say, when read by dget()). I ask this because I desire to emulate its actions *reliably* in my For2R routines, and I won't be comfortable until I understand what R is doing.

Hello, I'm hoping that there is an easier way to rename columns in a data frame other than by using the names() assignment, which requires you to type in all the column names at once for a data.frame, in the case that I simply want to rename a single column in a data frame. Also, is there an easy way to move columns in a data frame around relative to the other columns? Thanks in

I have started using R 1.5.0 on Windows 2000. The refinement of this system in such a short time is astounding, and I thank those who have worked on it and made it available! I have been using rterm.exe to develop R scripts in my preferred editor (not emacs) by sending the command rterm.exe --save < %f where the editor substitutes the filename for %f. This works wonderfully, and the

Remove all IOVA handling code from the non-dma_ops path in the intel iommu driver. There's no need for the non-dma_ops path to keep track of IOVAs. The whole point of the non-dma_ops path is that it allows the IOVAs to be handled separately. The IOVA handling code removed in this patch is pointless.
