Dear All,

Is there a R (Windows) equivalent of yeardays in Splus 6.0 for Windows? I am
using XP.

You could tell us what that did ... that version of S-PLUS (sic) is long 
obselete and most readers will not have access to it (or any other recent 
version of S-PLUS).

It would appear to be one plus the yday component of a POSIXlt object, so

as.POSIXlt(x)$yday + 1

should be equivalent.  See ?months for relevant comments.
