R help - Sep 1998 - Re: installing R packages --> for Pablo E. Verde

First time on this mailing list.

Try with Guido's rw0630 release. I have it running under Windows 98 and
by now I haven't experienced any problems with dynamic loading.

Second remark.

Warning: Data set `cat' not found

All data sets in MASS library as in boot one are NOT R source files but
R images. I think this is the reason why you (and me too, of course)
cann't load them.
If you want them as R-sourse files try this:
1- Open cats.rda (..\Mass\data\) with File: Load Image.
2- Edit the object cats (for exemple with: fix(cats)) and copy all the
data into a new Notepad document called "cat.R". Save cat.R and del
the
.TXT exstention.
3- Modify your new cat.R adding:
   cats <- structure(list(Sex = ...

Now you are ready to load cat.R with:
>library(MASS)
>data(cat)
