I am runninng rsync on Ubuntu. It was installed using apt-get install rysnc. I note that the package has not yet been updated to rysnc 3.0. I would like to update using the tar but I am confused how to update the existing installation. On this machine, I am mainly using rsync to send to a cwrsync server (which I have updated already). Can I just overwrite the rsync executable? Any help

Is there a reason I get the following strange characters in my log file? 2008/08/29 19:48:13 [7138] Number of files: 42321 2008/08/29 19:48:13 [7138] Number of files transferred: 78 2008/08/29 19:48:13 [7138] Total file size: +)*)/.+),00//,+)),( bytes 2008/08/29 19:48:13 [7138] Total transferred file size: +)*)/.+),(*0,+-.,0' bytes 2008/08/29 19:48:13 [7138] Literal data: -+,((0),' bytes

Hi, I have a data set with a continuous predictor X, a factor A and a continuous dependent variable Y. I am trying to build a linear model of the form: Y = (b0 + b1*X1)*B(A) where B(A) is a constant for each level of the factor A. I am not quite sure how to formulate the appropriate model formula. If I write: Y ~ ( 1 + X)/A , I get estimates for as many constants and slopes as the number of

[PLEASE REPLY _OFF_ THE LIST, i.e. DON'T CC to r-help at ...] Hi, I don't see this sort of thing very often on the mailing lists, so list moderators and others should feel free to tell me if it breaches list etiquette and/or delete my post if necessary. But I can't see what harm it could do... I am just wondering approximately how many people use / have used some of the R stuff

I am a bit surprised by the behaviour of Samba user permissions (security = user) - although in fact it produces exactly what I want! Can I confirm it is correct, and ask one question? I have one class of shares (private) which I want only specified users to access. And another class which I want everyone to be able to access (public) but with a common password protection for some element of

Dear R-Help List, I'm trying to implement Firth's (1993) bias correction for log-linear models. Firth (1993) states that such a correction can be implemented by supplementing the data with a function of h_i, the diagonals from the hat matrix, but doesn't provide further details. I can see that for a saturated log-linear model, h_i=1 for all i, hence one just adds 1/2 to each count,

Dear list, Sometimes I have huge data.frames and the small spreadsheetlike edit.data.frame is quite handy to get an overview of the data. However, when I close the editor all data are rolled over the console window, which takes time and clutters the window. Is there a way to avoid this? Fredrik

Hi, I'd like to execute simple commands and functions in R through a website, is there any service like this somewhere? I only found http://www.osvisions.com/r-online/ but it does not work (last update 2003) and the links to releated websites only give errors (if I calculate 7+3). Thanks for help & hints, Thomas

Hi, Having searched google '[R] aov effect size' without any results I wonder if I not completely miss something. Is there any R function that calculates the effect size of an AOV's main effect or interaction effect? It should be related to the F's and the degree of freedom of the error, but the multitude in numbers in aov() baffle me a bit. Thanks, ---david

Dear list, I'm trying to mimic the analysis of Wedderburn (1974) as cited by McCullagh and Nelder (1989) on p.328-332. This is the leaf-blotch on barley example, and the data is available in the `faraway' package. Wedderburn suggested using the variance function mu^2(1-mu)^2. This variance function isn't readily available in R's `quasi' family object, but it seems to me
