rsync ipv6 patch merge?
...condition on including IPv6 support. I can imagine distribution-builders who may not have IPv6 in the build machine kernel, but still want to enable it in binary packages. We could easily fix this. rsync supports a fair number of unix-like platforms at the moment, some of which are rather old or idiosyncratic. So, while the new IPv6/v4 sockets API looks quite nice, I think we cannot count on it being present. Any advice here would be welcome. The KAME patch seems to *replace* the old interface by the new one, which is OK for a patch but would probably not be adequate if we want a single tree that wil...

anova on aov with Error() [long question]
...are due to differences in use of the scales. I have selected the 20 cases haphazardly. I assume that each measure (familiarity and emotion) contains two kinds of kinds of effects, each with its own error, one specific to the _case_ (hence "common" to all subjects) and one that is "idiosyncratic" to the particular subject-case combination. ------ I. One wrong way to analyze these data is to compute the correlation within each subject and then do (e.g.) a t-test on the correlations. This is wrong because a correlation could arise from a small correlation of the common errors (which...

Package development on Windows - latest guidance?
...uot;Writing R Extensions." 2. LATEX. In Rossi's paper, fpTeX is recommended (I use VTeX in everyday work). However, fpTeX has been discontinued by the author. What is the best way to get an R-compatible TeX installation for this work? (or might I get VTeX working -- its command line is idiosyncratic but it can create PDF, DVI, or HTML directly from LaTeX source)?

nlminb: names of parameter vector not passed to objective function
...t nlminb, in contrast to optim, does not pass names of the start parameters to the objective function. Please find below a minimum reproducible example. There is, of course, a workaround, but in order to make optim and nlme more compatible I would ask whether it would be possible to change this idiosyncratic behavior? Tested with: R version 2.8.0 Patched (2008-11-04 r46830) i386-pc-mingw32 and also R version 2.9.0 Under development (unstable) (2008-12-03 r47039) i386-pc-mingw32 Thanks a lot Thomas Petzoldt set.seed(3577) # make it reproducible ## 1) example taken from ?nlminb ---------------...

rails scope without raw sql
Hi, I''ve been stung when deploying a rails app to heroku, and I''m fairly confident the problem is the difference between my local db sqlite3, and the heroku standard free shared db which is postgres(i think). I have a scope in my model that looks like this scope :not_archived, :conditions => [''application_state != "archived"''] The idea is I want

Enable Contributions Through Pull-request For LLVM
I'm not sure the idea that enabling pull requests will make it easier for new contributors is fully thought out. Just because more people might be familiar with GitHub, doesn't mean it is superior. I've found the workflow on Phabricator to be really easy. I think many people agree that Phabricator is really good, I don't think we would want to get rid of Phabricator and while its

Stricter read.table?
read.table gives idiosyncratic results when the input is formatted strangely, for example: read.table(textConnection("a'b\nc'd\n"),header=FALSE,fill=TRUE,sep="",quote="'") => "c'd" "a'b" "c'd" read.table(textConnection("a'b\nc'...

while loop problems
...sults. it fills the individual protection column always rather than conditioning it on the likelihood vector(data[i,2]). there is a lot of moving parts but overall it is a simple model. my end result is to have a vector containing the accumulated values of insurance for each type of stop loss(i.e. idiosyncratic and aggregate). Thanks, Alon.

Zero Index Origin?
...indexes starts with 0 instead of 1. Is it possible to effect that in R without a lot of difficulty? I come here today from the world of DSP research and development where Matlab has a near hegemony. I see no reason whatsoever that R couldn't replace it with a _far_ better and _far_ less idiosyncratic framework. I'd be interested in working on a Matlab equivalent DSP package for R (if that isn't being done by someone) and one of the things most criticized about Matlab from the standpoint of the DSP programmer is its insistence on 1 origin indexing. Any feedback greatly appreciated....

R-beta: t.test
As a very new user of R, and a user of S with very limited experience, I thought I would start humbly with a simple t.test. The response to the command sequence sample <- scan() 4 5 6 7 8 9 t.test(sample,mu=20) rather surprised me, because of the idiosyncratic choice of a confidence interval for the mean of the population from which the sample was drawn. I asked my colleague Bob Henery about this, and his reply is appended. Is there a good reason for choosing this rather unconventional behaviour for R, or is it just a blunder as Bob suggests? At any r...

Is it a good idea/required to run winbind
We've been running a samba service for many years but have stuck using 3.0.24. Every version I tried after 3.0.24 seemed to have reliability problems. But if every version since 3.0.24 was broken I assume someone would have noticed by now :-). So I'm guessing we're doing somethng idiosyncratic and/or stupid.. The config we have is that our samba server (solaris) is getting uid/gid info using NSS from ldap. But all the users are also in an ADS domain which is synchronised with the ldap servers by an identity management system. So we do authentication from ADS. The relevant parts of t...

X11 image problem in R-2.8.0 Under development / R-2.7
I apologize if this is too obscure to reproduce, or some idiosyncratic aspects of my system. If I create a plot, e.g., > plot(1:10) I get a graphics device as expected. I then click on the 'zoom' box on my X11 window, so the window expands to occupy the entire screen. The plot is redrawn at the scale of the large window, but is clipped to the '...

Unexpected behavior with cat
...r") I get back text that looks like Asian characters. If I highlight and copy that text, it is the text I would regularly expect, e.g. the number 70 and the prompt line. Highlighting the text changes what is shown on the screen, but the screen never displays the number 70. This error is not idiosyncratic to 70 but happens with a fairly wide range of numbers. Notably no error like this occurs when I use \n. I use \r for large simulation runs when I don't want my progress to spam the display. e.g. for (i in 1:1000) {cat(i,"\r");flush.console();Sys.sleep(.100)} sessionInfo() where I...

Is there a sexy way ...?
...ys combining the elements at the current position into a vector, which will result in a list like this: ``` [[1]] [1] 7 2 6 [[2]] [1] 13? 5? 9 ... ``` And then we reduce this resulting list into a vector by successively combining its elements with `c()`. I think the formula syntax is a bit idiosyncratic, you could also do this with an anonymous function like pmap(\(`1`, `2`, `3`) c(`1`, `2`, `3`)), or if the list was unnamed as pmap(\(x, y, z) c(x, y, z)). I personally find the tidyverse-esque code to be very explicit & readable, but given base R can do this very concisely one might argue...

slot assignment in S4 classes
Hi R friends,   I'm still studying S4 classes and I have a question about slot assignment. Why would I have to use a special setter method [example 2 below] if I can assign data to a slot directly when I call new() [example 1 below]?   ## first way to do it (the idiosyncratic way?) setClass(Class = "TestClass", representation = representation(myDf = "data.frame")) setGeneric(name = "doStuff", def = function(object, ...){standardGeneric("doStuff")}) setMethod(f = "doStuff",    signature = "TestClass",    definit...
