Hi there - I have a question for any of you who use R2WinBUGS to call WinBUGS using the useWINE option in that package. I have Codeweaver's Crossover emulator installed on my Intel Mac with WinBUGS working fine if I start it from Crossover. But there is supposed to be a way to start it directly from a command line, which I could pass to the R2WinBUGS using the bugs(..., useWINE="something") argument. Has anyone tried this yet? Thanks!

Thanks! >useWINE=TRUE. You may have to set some environment variables (e.g. WINE is the path to your WINE executable). It's supposed to just work out of the box. I have some fixes that I've been meaning to upload to complement the existing stuff, but haven't. If you run into trouble drop me a line. Ben Bolker
