use of split lines in ess
Hi all I am very astonished that R generates a "syntax error" when I want to split up a line with a backslash, which usually works in any shell script. R itself generates the "+" symbols at the beginning of following lines in a splitted line so I've tried with them as well, but also without success...

astonishing memory phenomenon
I have a question concerning memory. I understood that R takes a fixed amount of memory at startup (which I can influence with --vsize --nsize) and that gc() shows the memory still free of the total memory reserved for R. However, if I create a long vector of character data, gc() only seem to reflect the space needed for a vector of pointers to char, the space used for the character data itself

Apache wakes-up inactive Exim
Had a surprising event on C 6.5. Exim was the only MTA installed. It was partially configured (with ACL, Router, Transport) and definitely not running. I was remotely testing a web page. A web page error condition invoked the embedded PHP mail() command. To my astonishment something in Centos woke-up Exim. Exim sent the email and then became inactive again. The Exim logs does not show any

Shortcomings of Maildir++ layout
...ular mbox format a path can lead to either a file or a directory, but not both, while under IMAP, a path is usually both, a message folder containing subfolders. I found dovecot's approach to this problem, the Maildir++ layout described under http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MboxChildFolders , and was astonished to see, what problems come with Maildir++ and how complicated dovecot tries to deal with them. I wonder why dovecot is not using a much easier approach and just uses a configurable prefix and/or suffix like .dir or ____ for directory names, e.g. INBOX -> ~/mail/inbox abc ->...

I don't understand the 'order' function
...arrived to the following example: order(c(2465, 2255, 2085, 1545, 1335, 1210, 920, 210, 210, 505, 1045)) [1] 8 9 10 7 11 6 5 4 3 2 1 and I was completely perplexed! Shouldn't the output vector be 11 10 9 8 7 6 4 1 2 3 5 ? Do I have a damaged version of R? I became still more astonished when I used the sort function and got the right answer: sort(c(2465, 2255, 2085, 1545, 1335, 1210, 920, 210, 210, 505, 1045)) [1] 210 210 505 920 1045 1210 1335 1545 2085 2255 2465 since 'sort' documentation claims to be using 'order' to establish the right order....

I have been installing Red Hat Linux (and now CentOS) since RH 7. After installing, I am always astonished at the unneeded services that upstream has running. Check services, after installing and stop the services you do not need!

data.table not available as win binary for R 3.5
Dear all, to my astonishment data.table cannot be installed on R 3.5 Windows. When checking the package page, the Windows binary is available for download. When checking the server however, I can't seem to find data.table. Also install.packages() says the package is only available in source form and may need compilation. Compiling using Rtools 35 is no problem. Is this merely an issue of

memory footprint of readRDS()
Dear all, I tried to read in a 3.8Gb RDS file on a computer with 16Gb available memory. To my astonishment, the memory footprint of R rises quickly to over 13Gb and the attempt ends with an error that says "cannot allocate vector of size 5.8Gb". I would expect that 3 times the memory would be enough to read in that file, but apparently I was wrong. I checked the memory.limit() and that

Numerical Recipes in R
Dear All, So far I have mainly used R for data analysis and simple numerics (integration of functions, splines etc...). However, I have recently been astonished at finding out that many things I thought were only achievable with Fortran or C can be done e.g. entirely using MatLab. When I try asking around if the same could be achieved by R, inevitably the answer is that either people do not know R or there is so much numerical MatLab code (for instance for...

Managing public folder ACL files
We have a customer with a large public folder hierarchy. They occasionally make requests to have the public folder ACLs changed; for example: "please give user X access to all public folders" (that's nearly 1700 folders). Worse: "please give user Y access to all sales folders" (there are 1450 sales folders). The problem is that there are (naturally) spaces in the folder

[Asterisk-Dev] Asterisk 1.2 Release Plans
As previously mentioned on the lists by Olle Johannson, we are actively trying to get Asterisk in shape for a 1.2 release within the next 60 days. To accomplish this, we need a few things to happen: 1) A feature freeze - This will occur at the end of this month, with no new feature submissions accepted after July 31st. Any _pending_ feature patches in Mantis that have passed architecture

stripped volume in 3.4.0qa5 with horrible read performance
Dear folks, I've been tried to use replicated stripped volumes with 3.3. unsuccessfully due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=861423 and I then proceed to try 3.4.0qa5. I then find out that the bug was solved and I could use replicated stripped volume with the new version. Amazingly, write performance was quite astonishing. The problem I'm facing now is in the read process:

Chat with ogg
The last week, after 5 minutes of astonishment for the great compression ratio achieved by ogg (370MB wav of voice -> 14 MB OGG, 28 kbps without any perceivable and/or significant quality loss), I had the idea of use ogg to stream my voice, in order to chat in almost-realtime with a friend (only one, of course: I have a 56k modem). Here the idea: I put a streaming server on my machine (I

winDialog (equivalent) on Unix anyone ?
Hi, We have a few R scripts, that have a minimalistic GUI Interface using winDialog() calls. Is there any cross-plattform equivalent we can port to, such that the code will run on both Windows and Unix ? I thought about either tcltk or gtk Stuff. I was astonished that I couldn't find anything similar that had been implemented since the 0.99 release, or do I miss something obvius ? Yours, Steffen

This application is based on the creation of some objects as : - scripting.filesystem - scripting.dictionary - msxml2.serverXMLHTTP - adodb.connection I succeded in...

How to Flash() a modem line
Hello! I'd like to Flash() a modem line (BRI) with Asterisk. It is a passive ISDN-card connected to a hardware PBX. I use ISDN4Linux. I recognised that unfortunately the Flash() application flashes Zap devices only. Now I am wondering how I could flash Modem/ttyI0. The source code chan_modem.c doesn't contain anything about flashing a modem line. So I tried to simply put the AT-command
