[R] the svDialogs package

Hello Marco,

For the first error, the message is clear: "not implemented yet!".
Several dialog boxes are not done yet, but the functions already exist,
mainly as "placeholders" for future development.

Regarding the second, there was a bug in the function (corrected in
SciViews 0.8-6 that I have just uploaded to CRAN), and also a
misunderstanding of the its first argument: "list". This argument
should
be a charactger vector containing the list of items... but not a list!
So, the correct code is:

 > m_list <- 1:10
 > res <- guiDlgList(m_list) # Need SciViews 0.8-6!
 > res

Note that guiDlgXXX() functions return results _invisibly_. So, you need
to assign its result to a variable, or use something like:

 > (guiDlgList(m_list))

to see the result printed at the console.

Best,

Philippe
