I have compiled Darwin R using the AquaTk frameworks. This works (except for a small glitch). I am sure Stefano could hook these into Carbon R, but Jose/Stefano probably should connect them with the Cocoa interfaces. You can get the frameworks (8.4a5, I think) from ftp://ftp.ucsd.edu/pub/alpha/tcl/alphatk/ -- they are in the alphatk.dmg. Of course the X11 version of tcltk does NOT work with Carbon

Byron I meant there is no native (Aqua) version of GTK yet (there is wxWindows and Qt and Tk, so possibly GTK will follow). The X11 version of RGtk works for me too. I agree with your diagnosis of the GUI problem.

John Fox (see below) raises important questions for the Lisp-stat community (and perhaps the R community) to consider. This message thread was not cross-posted to r-devel@lists.r-project.org, so I do so now. I have never been an active or particularly adept Lisp-stat programmer. But I have worked on or used several projects for which Lisp-stat seemed the ideal environment-- for implementing

I was obviously fascinated by Duncan's earlier message on RXLisp. I managed to build a working version of RXLisp for OS X, by some unabashed and rather uninformed hacking. I compiled XLISP-STAT using the gcc flags -fno-common and --no-cpp-precomp (not sure if they are necessary or not, they are part of an older hack). I "make libxlisp.so", using Duncan's replacement for the

Hi, this is not an R-help post, but I found this extract below that was written by a leading mathematician back in 1999 when he was talking about statistics and computing. I found it interesting to share and I ask your opinion do you think this still holds today or things have changed? Thanks. ?...we would also like to mention that in our opinion Mathematica provides an excellent and indeed

I have written some programs in Common Lisp and I have been using SAS to pipe those programs to my lisp compiler in batch mode by using the %xlog and %xlst SAS commands. I wonder if there is in R a similar way to pipe commands to LISP so that all my work would be concentrated in R even when I have to call a LISP program? I have looked at the foreign library but this seems to adjust data types not

Almost not at all, though there are a few holdouts. On a related note, I've been doing some interesting things with a branch of LispStat for CommonLisp. It'll be more interesting when

Hi, I am trying to read the "credit.lisp" file of the Japanese credit database in UCI repository, but it is in lisp format which I do not know how to read. I have not found how to do that in the foreign library http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Japanese+Credit+Screening <http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Japanese+Credit+Screening> Could anyone help me?

Dear all, One of my friends asked me if it is possible to extract actual R function arguments literally (precisely, as strings). The reason is simple. He feels sometimes awkward to attach quotation marks :-). What he actually wants is to pass R command arguments to XLisp subroutines (He has been an enthusiastic XLisp user for a long time and still tends to use R as a wrapper to XLisp). Is it

Dear R users, I was trying to install the package RXLisp by Duncan Temple Lang on a MDK 9.1 Linux machine running R 1.8.0 installed from a RPM. Unfortunately I had a problem loading the shared library into R. Since I'm a Linux newbie I was not able to solve the problem. Maybe some of you can help me. First of all I downloaded the source archive for Xlisp-Stat and for the RXlisp package.

Hola a todos, Tengo un problema al intentar cargar datos de Excel con el r commander con los comandos datos->importar conjunto de datos->desde un archivo de Excel Tengo instalada la última versión de r la 3.0.1 y el mensaje de error que me sale es el siguiente: ERROR: no se pudo encontrar la función "loadWorkbook" Puede ser que necesite cargar algún paquete extra. Gracias! Un

Hi, I want to use R for some data mining project , and was wondering if it has any intercative graphical features? For example, is it possible to plot a histogram and be able to select a specific point on it and have all the data about it? or select a specific area in a curve and have all the data about it? or possibilities to zoom out and in? Thank you for your help, Mama Benchaffai School of

Dear R-devel, There is a new feature in R-devel, which explicitly refers to LISP @ operator for splicing. > The backquote function bquote() has a new argument splice to enable splicing a computed list of values into an expression, like ,@ in LISP's backquote. Although the most upvoted SO question asking for exactly LISP's @ functionality in R doesn't seems to be addressed by this

I am wondering if people on the list could recommend books that they have found helpful about programming concepts and style? I often find that students write R programs by copying existing code but could really benefit from the understanding of more general programming ideas. An example would be to avoid writing functions which attempt to modify their parameters. Another principle would be

Do you know what I really, really miss in R that I took fopr granted in my XLisp-Stat programming days??? The ability to easily create menus and dialog boxes. I could write little applications and give them out to clients. It was wonderful. It would at least allow each person to begin to build one's own menu driven version. Just a thought!!

Johannes Huesing sent a message to stat-lisp-news at stat.umn.edu regarding an article in Linux-Magazin (German) on statistical software for Linux. I enclose excerpts. Can anyone summarize what was said about R in the article? If there is a web site for the article I would appreciate learning of the URL. I must admit, though, the my abilities in German are much less impressive than the

hello somebody might help to create a script to download the repo DAG of CentOS 5.5 to my PC. I already did with OS, Update, and Extras packages. I want to do with DAG repository. I tried but I don't know much about scripts. Thanks Fidel
