I have a regular script I run to make static "snapshots" of my home file system, with each being all the files that changed in the past 24 hours. I just moved my home partition to a new harddisk w/more space. I ran the util and have gotten odd results each time I ran it. This one bothers me... as I'm not sure why the attrs would be missing. How can the names be transfered but no

Maybe I just woke up too early today. I have SJPhone and X-Lite working perfectly but I cannot for the life of me get sipXphone working properly with Asterisk. Its probably something stupid on my part, but does anyone have a quick setup sheet for it? -Kerry -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

For a variety of displays (mosaicplots, barplots, ...) one often wants to either abbreviate or wrap long labels, particularly when these are made up of several words. In general, it would be nice to have a function, abbreviate.or.wrap <- function(x, maxlength=10, maxlines=2, split=" ") { } that would take a character vector or a list of vectors, x, and try to abbreviate or wrap

Hi, I can't get the non-abbreviated class names of the rows and the cols of the Adjacency Matrix: setClass("ClassWithALongName") setClass("SubclassOfClassWithALongName", contains="ClassWithALongName") Trying all possible values for 'abbreviate' (with R-2.9.0): > classesToAM("SubclassOfClassWithALongName", abbreviate=0)

...endar sort of functionality for which the user input for events is taken. To make it user friendly, its left to the user to write the time down rather than selecting it from a datetime field in a form . The user can also specify a timezone. And while doing so its obvious that most inputs will be an abbreviation. My question is - is there a way to convert "PST" into the required timezone name or at least get the UTC offset for it? Thanks in advance

I'm trying to create maps of reptile abundance in different states & counties using data from Herp.net, which provides lists of specimens with the places that they were found. First I would like to parse the list by state using 2-letter abbreviations, since I'm focusing on certain regions. To do this, I've been trying to create a vector (state2) that gives all state names as 2-letter abbreviations, using advice given on the thread: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/09/12136.html However, the code provided there does not w...

...each letter after a space into a capital letter? E.g.: c( "this is an element of the vector of strings", "second element" ) becomes: c( "This Is An Element Of The Vector Of Strings", "Second Element" ) My reason to try to do this is to get more readable abbreviations. (A suggestion would be to add an option to abbreviate() which changes letters after space to uppercase letters before executing the abbreviation algorithm.) Thanks - Wolfram

Thanks to Tony Plate for letting me know what the abbreviate.arg option does. I think this could be made more flexible (I.e. =TRUE, =FALSE, =#, where # would be passed to the abbreviate min.length argument). But it follows the example I was given. "print.factor" <- function (x, quote = FALSE, max.levels=5, print.levels = {if (max.levels==0) FALSE else TRUE},

R 2.15.1 OS X Colleagues, I encountered the following unexpected behavior today: The following command yielded the expected result: paste(c("TEXT1", "TEXT2"), collapse="|") Result: [1] "TEXT1|TEXT2" However, abbreviating "collapse" by even one character: paste(c("TEXT1", "TEXT2"), collaps="|") yielded the

Dear all (copying the package author), I have a question on the vlmc package. I am trying to model a time series, where each element can take one of 11 values (the result of some clustering). When I run the following command (synthetic data to facilitate self-contained example) I get the following warning: ("alphabet with >1-letter strings; trying to abbreviate") +++ START+++ >

...ST) What I''m stuck with is: how to easily convert: "Mountain Time (US & Canada)" => "MST" Shouldn''t there be an easy mapping somewhere? Given that I have the full time zone as a string, I need to pass it into a data structure or object and then get the abbreviation. So far, the best I''ve found is (where myevent.time_zone is the full time zone string): ActiveSupport::TimeZone::ZONES.find{|z| z.name == myevent.time_zone}.tzinfo.current_period.abbreviation.to_s This returns "MST". But there''s gotta be a better way, right? (I just c...

Is it possible to get timezone abbreviations using the TimeZone or TzinfoTimezone classes? Even after converting UTC to localtime it still reports the timezone abbreviation as UTC. Example: >> @tz = TzinfoTimezone.us_zones[2] => #<TzinfoTimezone:0x30868a0 @utc_offset=-28800, @name="Pacific Time (US & Canada)">...

Dear R-devel, I've made some potential extensions to writeForeignSAS in 'foreign' that I wanted to pass along if anyone is interested. I've attached the diff -u output against the version found in foreign_0.8-15 and an .R file with my changes. (In this .R file, the function is named writeForeignSAS7 to simplify testing/comparisons.) I've tried to alter the current

This is probably more a Ruby than a rails question, but when I call the method strftime("%Z") on a Time object, it returns the full time zone name "Eastern Daylight Time". Is there a way to get the Abbreviation instead?

Hi all! Fuzzing llvm's bitcode reader, I found a problem where the reader assumes that the first field in an abbreviation will not be an array or a blob (and asserts otherwise). I don't know if this is expected (but not documented) or not. The documentation, to me, reads like it doesn't disallow it, but we might be assuming all abreviations start with a full record, which would make the first operand never be...
