Hello folks, I can't make R use the GNU-Readline-library. However, - I have run configure with --enable-readline and - configure *has found* the library. My Linux distribution is SuSe, July 1998. I'm using Kernel 2.0.25. I was told by Douglas Bates (r-devel), that this problem between R and (probably) SuSe was discussed before on this list. Can someone tell me how I can make R use readline? Please mail to my private adress! (wreich at gwdg.de) cu/ru... ===================================================Wendelin Reich Tel.

Check the configure output where it looks for rl_callback_read_char in -lreadline If it doesn't find it, you probably need to upgrade readline. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

I've just moved from R 0.49 to R 0.61 and I'm trying to get the functions I've made to work as a package. I created a directory called ~/mine/R and put all the functions I wanted in as files called name.R I created files DESCRIPTION and TITLE in ~/mine Then as root I ran R INSTALL mine from ~ This gave : solzhenitsyn:~king# R INSTALL mine Installing package `mine' ... R DONE No man pages found in package `mine' On starting R I get the message Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error on line 260 and the library doesn't seem to be there What am I doing wrong? ---- Robert King, || The Society for the Preservation of Tithesis commends your Environmental|| ebriated and scrutable use of "delible" and "defatigable", Science, || which are gainly, sipid and couth.
