At the best of my knowledge, wavetresh hasn't be ported to R.
I don't know it so I don't know how much work is required
to made wavetresh working with R.
If you have time, and if the package is really under a license
that let this, I would suggest to try to pack wavetresh
as a R package WORKING UNDER LINUX (or some other fashion of Unix).
Look to the R-Faq and to some of the module available in CRAN
for what is needed (for a `polite' S module this can be as
easy as (1) re-structuring the directories in the way R expects them;
(2) converting (automagically) the documentation; (3) make some
moderate make-up to the Makefile).
Then, I would like to help you with the MsWindows part.
I forward this message to r-help hoping that someone
can give you some more advice.
