In the windows version (RGui), is there a way to set the text displayed in the titlebar of the R window? When I have 2 instances of RGui running, it would be helpul if the titlebar could help to understand which is which. -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at Phone: +43-1-4277-38624 Fax: +43-1-4277-9386
It look like this will be possible from R v2.0.0;>From http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/CHANGES.rw2000devAdded functions setWindowTitle(), getWindowTitle(), and getIdentification(). To R-devel: Will this be 1) Rgui only? and/or 2) Windows only?

Hi. Has R dev. team considered employing SWIG(http://www.swig.org/), which supports PHP, Ruby, Java etc., for connecting C/C++ libraries with R? Regards.

An ugly workaround for versions prior 2.0 would be creating a copy of Rgui.exe and change its icon (google for 'change icon'). Under xp I also can just deactivate the icon on the compatibility tab (disable visual themes). Best Jens Oehlschl??gel

I don't think SWIG would be much help with OpenGL, because there the difficulty is in translating the R ideas of what data is like and what people want to do with it into corresponding concepts in OpenGL, the actual calls to the OpenGL API are a pretty easy part of the whole exercise. In any case, they probably have to be written in compiled code for performance reasons, since you make so many OpenGL calls for every frame being drawn. But I'm sure there are other libraries where this isn't true, and SWIG would be useful for them. Maybe Hisaji has one, and would want to tackle the R support. Duncan Murdoch
