Dear all
I installed new version (from binaries) and I noticed that
par(bg="white")
which I have in my .Rprofile causes error message on startup
But if I issued this command immediately after startup everything worked as
expected. I did not see any note in changes file or elsewhere.
Should I specify white background in .Rprofile differently?
Or is there some other recommended way to set up white background on startup?
Everything was OK in 1.8.1 version.
Using W2000.

Hi, it's in the release notes from Peter:>Users may notice that code in .Rprofile is run with only the >new base loaded and so functions may now not be found. For >example, ps.options(horizontal = TRUE) should be preceded by >library(graphics) or called as graphics::ps.options or, >better, set as a hook -- see ?setHook.detlef On Tue, 13 Apr 2004 13:39:20 +0200 "Petr Pikal" <petr.pikal at precheza.cz> wrote:> Dear all > > I installed new version (from binaries) and I noticed that > > par(bg="white") > > which I have in my .Rprofile causes error message on startup > But if I issued this command immediately after startup everything worked as > expected.
