Hi, A new release of RArcInfo is out, together with a draft of the tutorial. You can get both from http://matheron.estadi.uv.es/~virgil/Rpackages/RArcInfo Windows binaries are also available and package source can also be downloaded from CRAN. I 'd like to encourage users of the package to read the tutorial and report ideas. Besides, I would like to keep a web page on works where RArcInfo is being used. Changes made are: *V 0.4-2 - 'index' argument added to plotarc to select the arcs to plot. - 'index' argument added to plotpal to select the polygons to plot. - New function 'get.nb', which, given a set of polygons, returns the neighbouring polygons of each one. - Fixed a bug in 'get_tol_data'. The file to be open was of type CNT instead of TOL. Now tolerances are read without problems. - Output messages have been changed in several functions to be more useful for the user. - Fixed a bug in 'plotarc' when calculating plot dimensions. - Example added to RArcInfo documentation file. Comments are welcome. Regards and enjoy, -- Virgilio G?mez Rubio Dpto. Estad?stica e I. O. - Facultat de Matem?tiques Avda. Vicent A.
