I've submitted a new, and substantially enhanced, version (1.2-0) of the
Rcmdr package to CRAN. Some highlights (from the CHANGES) file:
o Added ability to import from Excel, Access or dBase files (contributed
by Samir Messad, Renaud Lancelot and Matthieu Lesnoff).
o Added ability to read data from the clipboard (suggested by Graham
Smith).
o Added "Data -> Active data set -> Stack variables in active
data set"
(suggested by Richard Heiberger).
o Added many probability distributions, courtesy of Miroslav Ristic and
G. Jay Kerns, Andy Chang, and Theophilius Boye.
o Added dialogs to sample from probability distributions; divided
distributions menus into Continuous and Discrete.
o Added totPercents function. Added total percentages and components of
chi-square to two-way tables (suggested by Richard Heiberger).
o Added "Statistics -> Summaries -> Count missing
observations".
o Added "Statistics -> Summaries -> Correlation test",
contributed by
Stefano Calza.
o The numerical summaries, table of statistics, frequency distributions,
numeric to factor, and recode dialogs will now process multiple variables in
parallel (suggested by Bo Sommerlund).
o Added function numSummaries for neater output from "Statistics ->
Summaries -> Numerical summaries" (motivated by comments from Bo
Sommerlund).
o XY conditioning plots dialog added, courtesy of Richard Heiberger.
o Enhancements to 3D scatterplots.
o Small interface improvements (e.g., pressing letter key in a list box
moves to next entry starting with that letter).
o New Rcmdr options (etc and etcMenus) determine where the Commander
will look for its configuration and menu files (motivated by a suggestion by
Richard Heiberger).
Rcmdr version 1.2-0 includes revised Catalan and Japanese translations
(courtesy of Manel Salamero and Takaharu Araki); as other revised
translations become available, I'll submit updated versions of the package
to CRAN. Version 1.2-1 will also have a revised introductory manual.
As usual, bug reports, comments, and suggestions are welcome.
