Hello dear R help members. I am trying to understand the anova.rq, and I am finding something which I can not explain (is it a bug?!): The example is for when we have 3 nested models.

Dear colleagues, each time I use htmlParse, R crashes or hangs. The url I'd like to parse is included below as is the results of a series of basic commands that describe what I'm experiencing. The results of sessionInfo() are attached at the bottom of the message. The thing is, htmlTreeParse appears to work just fine, although it doesn't appear to contain the information I need (the

Hello, I've looked for a BIDI HOW-TO, but did not find any. I use wine-0.9.5, and run IE using ies4linux. It works great including Hebrew showing Hebrew text correctly.

I did! using

I must install MS Office in Wine on Ubuntu Linux. It installs fine, but the Hebrew is backwards. Googling the problem led me to this video, which illustrates the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19I2qaykE6w Does anyone know how to fix this? I am on a full UTF-8 Hebrew locale, if that is relevant. I installed MS Office 2003 in English on Kubuntu 8.04. Thanks in advance. $ wine --version

I'm trying to use rsync (version 2.6.9) to back up some files. However, a few of them contain Hebrew characters. While I can back them up, the filenames come through scrambled (I don't have Hebrew characters anymore). I've tried the -8 switch, but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

Hello All, I am trying to write a routine that loops over some links and parses those links using htmlParse.  The problem is that one of the links may display a pop up window on top of that link's web page.  If there is a pop up, the routine bombs and I get an error message that the url doesn't exist.

Sorry if this is offtopic. My Win32 comment editor uses a routine of my own to read comments directly from OGG files but uses vorbiscomment.exe to write comments. I've implemented a UTF-8 function which I found on the internet to decode UTF-8.
