search for: metafont

Can someone hit me with the appropriate clue-by-4? is there an available package for CentOS5 which provides the metafont command, or a replacement? What is the name and which repo? please. I have a font bundle I need to use (which is not provided in an RPM that I can find), but metafont does not seem to be available. tetex provides the /usr/share/texmf/metafont directory structure, but not a */bin/metafont...

Platform: Windows 95 Version : R0641 Problem : I wish to plot and save a large number of graphics files in windows metafont format. I have a very crude postscript printing function, which happily handles repeated calls: psf<-function(filename){ dev.print(postscript,file=paste(sep="",filename,".ps"),horizontal=F) return() } To produce metafont files, I adapt this to, for example...

Dear list, Inspired by the original Knuth tools, and for paedaogical reasons, I wish to produce a document presenting some source code with interspersed comments in the source (see Knuth's books rendering TeX and metafont sources to see what I mean). I seemed to remember that a code chunk could be defined piecewise, like in Comments... <<Chunk1, eval=FALSE, echo=TRUE>>= SomeCode @ Some other comments... <<Chunk2, eval=FALSE, echo=TRUE>>= MoreCode @ And finally, <<Chunk3, eval=TR...

You're definitely missing bits of texlive. Lots of "missing file: mf" in your debug logs. I think you need to start with installing texlive-metafont. Alternately, there are pre-built R 3.6.2 packages for EL-7 here: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1421894 I cannot push them as official updates to EPEL because of the catch-22 created by R's dependency on newer C++ support than the EL-7 gcc has. My packages use the devt...

METAFONT does this (and consequently, Metapost as well). I still remember my surprise when I found out that Donald Knuth resorts to such sophisticated machinery for the sole purpose of designing font characters. Knuth surely did many wonderful things :-). -- Fran?ois Pinard http://pinard.progiciels...

...The latest version produces compressed text when they are inserted in Word 2000, while the older version did not. I am pretty sure it is a real effect, since it has occured with new installations, the same r program, and the same version of windows and word. I have only tested it with enhanced metafont files, have yet to try it with pdf. Using pdf is a good call though....usually fixes a lot of word bad behaviour.

Dear R users, I want to share my joy with you. Please see the following excellent introduction to R "Statistiques avec R " by Vincent Zoonekynd http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html In paticular, you can see a lot of fascinating graphics examples of R from which you can get many hints. Soryy if this is already well-known, but the CRAN search did not show nothing with the keyword

Bug in cmake (or more likely the makefile?), pure and simple. Version numbers aren't strings, and they aren't floating point numbers, they are a series of integers separated by dots. I can't think of a project where interpreting version numbers that way won't work. On Wed, Jun 15, 2016 at 7:21 AM, Cristianno Martins via llvm-dev < llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: >

I am trying to build the latest version of R (3.6.2) on a CentOS system running 7.7.1908. I have been able to build previous versions of R up to and including 3.5.3 successfully. Starting with 3.6.0 the "make check" step fails with errors relating to "pdflatex" being missing. So, I installed texlive-latex (and the 100 other rpm dependencies) then tried rebuilding R.
