R does a great job with the fine details regarding plots. e.g in the following: library(lattice) y <- -4:4/10 xyplot(y~1, las=1) the y axis is labelled with numbers -0.4, -0.2, 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 with the numbers aligned on the decimal point. How do I get the same behaviour in the colorkey of a levelplot? e.g. levelplot(matrix(y,3,3)) the numbers in the colorkey seem left-aligned, and

A recent paper on visualisation (in Neuron, a leading neuroscience journal) surveyed how well previous articles in this journal labelled their graphs (e.g. axis labelling and describing their error bars). Of particular interest is that (only) 40% of plots labelled what their colorkey was showing (variable and units). The paper is at http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2012.05.001 R is not yet

Hi everybody, I've never posted here before but I seem to be having a similar problem to what Tim Rice had in July, namely when running the configure script I get the following: configure: error: *** zlib missing - please install first or check config.log *** However, I have definitely installed zlib (see below): dngwks1:/tmp/openssh-3.0p1 # swlist # Initializing... # Contacting target

Is the following (from configure.in) intended: *-dec-osf*) if test ! -z "USE_SIA" ; then AC_MSG_CHECKING(for Digital Unix Security Integration Architecture) should that be "$USE_SIA" or similar or what is the point of testing a constant string for being zero length... The reason I ask is the for complex reasons we don't want SIA enabled on Tru64 since it breaks some

Maybe I just can't read properly, but I just spent the best part of a day trying to work out why HostbasedAuthentication wouldn't work for me (with protocol 2 in openssh-2.9p1). It seems (though maybe there is something wrong with my install), that after enabling it in the sshd_config it doesn't work, since the client will not in fact request it (by default). I was fooled by the

If the last line of an R script does not have a trailing newline, a small errror is produced at the end of the script. Small example. If file eg.r contains one line: getwd() and there is no newline after the closing paren $ R CMD BATCH eg.r produces an error: $ cat eg.r.Rout R : Copyright 2005, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.1.1 Patched (2005-09-01), ISBN 3-900051-07-0

Just for peace of mind, can someone who knows the openssh code better than I do, confirm that openssh doesn't use (in any circumstances) the openssl prng (since the code in versions prior to 0.9.6b is rather weak). My understanding is that it doesn't (using either /dev/random, egd, prngd or the builtin code), but I may have missed some other use of the openssl prng elsewhere... -- Jon

Hi, I have some text files that do not have trailing \n on the last (incomplete) line; how do I read in the last line? e.g. here is a test case: [linux + R version 2.6.1 (2007-11-26) ] z <- gzfile("short.gz", open="w") cat("7\n5\n3", file=z) close(z) z <- gzfile('short.gz') readLines(z) [1] "7" "5" readLines would indicate that
