Hi, new to the list, R and rpy. my first post. using rpy, i find this r.X11(height=3, width=6) allows me to preset the size of a subsequent r.plot(x, y) but i've been unable to find documention on related aspects, such as programatic control of the plot window location on the monitor, or programatic resizing of a plot once it is generated. Are these possible? In general I've found it diffcult to use google to search for answers because "R" is not a very effective keyword. Are there tricks to googling for R info? And If a start a web accessible html page for R, what keywords can I include that would make it easier for search engines to index so that other R-folk could find it? Thanks in advance, mike
If it's specifically R that I am looking for I use the following link http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/search.html If I were going to use google I would go to the advanced page and insert finzi.psych.upenn.edu into the "Domain" field so as to restrict the search. As you have found out the letter R is ubiquitous. There are other search engines listed on the CRAN website that you can also use http://cran.r-project.org/search.html However rpy is much less frequent. In fact google comes up with it straight away. From that I discovered that RPy has a mailing list http://rpy.sourceforge.net/maillist.html. Maybe you should try searching their archives http://rpy.sourceforge.net/maillist.html. I hope that helps Tom> -----Original Message----- > From: Mike R [mailto:mike.rstat at gmail.com] > Sent: Friday, 11 March 2005 2:44 PM > To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch > Subject: [R] howto: plot location, web search > > > Hi, > > new to the list, R and rpy. my first post. > > using rpy, i find this > > r.X11(height=3, width=6) > > allows me to preset the size of a subsequent > > r.plot(x, y) > > but i've been unable to find documention on related aspects, such as > programatic control of the plot window location on the monitor, or > programatic resizing of a plot once it is generated.
