Hi again, Thanks for the tips on Xgobi. I'll try them. Now I have another question. There is a package (not submitted to CRAN yet), that I would like to use, but it has the extension .tar, so it's for Linux platforms am I rigth? Is it possible from those files to compile for Windows?

This is covered in many places, for example the rw-FAQ. -- Brian D.
