Is there a way to programmatically tell whether R is running in batch or
GUI mode?
Thanks

Sending emails from R under Windows
Hi
Does anyone know of any R routines to send emails from R, under Windows?
I thought about writing such a facility using the R(D)COM package to
drive e.g. MS Outlook, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel. I have
found a function Sys.mail in the library syskern, but this only works
under Unix by shelling out a mail command.
Thanks,
David

Passing references to data objects into R functions
...extract2 = function(object.name, index) {
eval(parse(text = "temp = ", object.name, "[index, , drop=FALSE]",
sep=""))
# do some further manipulations here ....
return(temp)
}
But this seems very messy. Is there a better way?
Thanks for your help

RDCOM Client: processes not terminating
Hello
I am using Duncan Lang's RDCOM Client package (available on
omegahat.org) under R 1.7.0 and Windows XP Pro.
Is this the right forum for questions about this package? In case it is,
here is my question:
Instances of COM objects do not seem to terminate as expected, but leave
residual processes running. For example, if I try the simple example:

Help with factorized argument in solve.QP
Hi
I'm having problems getting the "factorized" argument in solve.QP (part
of the quadprog library) to work as expected. The helpfile states that
when the factorized argument is set to TRUE, then the function requires
the inverse of a square-root factor of the Hessian instead of the
Hessian itself. That is, when factorized=TRUE, the Dmat argument should
be a matrix R^(-1), such

RODBC: problem saving a new table in an "Excel database"
Hi
I am using package RODBC version 1.0-1 under R version 1.7.1 on Windows
XP Pro. I am having problems writing a new table to an (Excel) database
using sqlSave.
I connect to an empty Excel spreadsheet using odbcConnectExcel (which, I
believe, uses the Microsoft Excel Driver DSN). Then I try and save a new
table to the database(spreadsheet) using SqlSave, but obtain an error
message.

Mapping function dependencies
Hi
Does anyone know of any automatic way of mapping out the dependencies of
a function -- i.e. automatically listing which other functions that
function calls? I tried using all.names or all.vars, but I can't get it
to work on a function: e.g.
> test = function(x, y) return(sin(x + y)*cos(x + y))
> all.names(expression(test))
[1] "test"
I guess the problem is that all.names

Layout of windows devices
Hi
Is there a way to specify the location on the screen where a new
graphics device opens, for example with a call to win.graph()?
I'm using R 1.7.0 on Windows XP.
Thank you.

Flipping a heatmap
Hi
I am using the heatmap function in package mva to look at large
correlation matrices visually.
Is there any way to "flip" the output of heatmap plot left-right so
that, if presented with a correlation matrix, it plots the unity
elements in the correlation matrix along a diagonal from top left to
bottom right?
For example:
library(mva)
x = matrix(rnorm(1000), ncol=10)
z = cor(x)

Constrained optimization
Greetings, R-Wizards:
I'm trying to find an extremum subject to a nonlinear constraint. (Yes, I
have perused the archives but have found nothing positive.) The details of
the problem are these:

Multivariate Kalman filter with time-varying coefficients
Hi
Does anyone know of any R code for estimating a *multivariate* state
space model using a Kalman filter where the output matrix H(t) is
time-varying but predictable (i.e. measurable w.r.t information at time
t-1) in the observation equation
y(t) = H(t) z(t) + R w(t)?
[Here y(t) are the observations, z(t) is the state variable, w(t) the
observation error and R R' the observation error
