Using R 2.9.2 on Windows XP SP3. 1. Edit ~/Rconsole, and set font = TT Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 2. Start Rgui.exe 3. Go to Edit, GUI Preferfences 4. Rgui.exe crashes Rgui.exe does not crash if I do not access GUI Preferences (i.e., if I just use R), and it does correctly use Bitstream Vera Sans Mono as my font. Nor does it crash if I edit RConsol...

...re-install it, you would get the same thing (with both v2.3.1 and v2.4.0). After a couple of weeks of using Rterm.exe and meeting deadlines, I finally had time to wade through the vague references online regarding where the problem might be. Here's the fix. Basically, you have to find the Rconsole file (no extension) outside of the R installation directories (the installation directories will have at least two copies but those will not be chosen first by the R environment. What this means is that even if you delete every trace of the installation, the Rconsole will linger unbenownst to y...

...like to know whether this problem is specific to my machine. Lately I downloaded the version 1.5.0 patched [for windows] from http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre/ [patched: 2002-06-05] and http://www.cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/ [patched: 2002-06-12], and both of them fail to read Rconsole stored in a start-up directory; it seems these R versions check the parent directory of a start-up directory for Rconsole [i.e., if Rconsole is placed in its parent directory, parameters stored in Rconsole are correctly imported]. I usually specify R's start-up directory in the "start-in:...

....First" from the list of contents, getting a page headed: "Initialization at Start of an R Session". About half way down there is a sentence: The command-line flag --vanilla implies --no-site-file, --no-init-file, --no-restore and --no-environ. Under Windows, it also implies --no-Rconsole, which prevents loading the ?Rconsole? file. The last occurrence of the word Rconsole is in blue text and underlined, a link. On clicking on this link, I get a page headed "This program cannot display the webpage" with advice on "Most likely causes:" and "What you can t...

Hi, I was looking for a Windows-specific R function to focus the console window and couldn't find one. The motivation is that after loading the tcltk package, the "main" Tk window "." is presumably focused but then immediately withdrawn (hidden) so the RConsole loses its focus and you have to click on it to continue typing. Would there be any interest in including a winConsoleFocus() function in R at some stage or is it already there? I tried implementing a quick solution (below) which seemes to work. Regards, James src/gnuwin32/rui.c -------------...

Dear R-friends, After change (and saved) font style to "bold" in GUI preferences from menu-bar Edit, R 1.2.0, Win98, the "buflines" in the file Rconsole changed to "bufiles" and that causes error in invoking R next time. Is this a bug? Merry Christmas & Best regards, C.

Hola! Starting with rw1071, just after starting Rgui the scope is not with Rconsole, but some other place. This means I have to do a mouse click in the Rconsole before starting to write the first command. Since I always forget this, I end up writing the first command twice. This is of course only a minor nuisance, but why is focus no longer set to Rconsole window when start-u...

I changed my R console configurations, for example, the letters are white, the background is black, etc,... Then I saved this new configuration. What should I do if I want to have this new configuration everytime I open R? TIA

Is it possible to change the behavior of RGui/RConsole under MS Windows so that, if you submit a bunch of commands from a script window, when they've finished, focus is given to the Console, and not (as now) to the script? ------------------------ Philip A.

Hi, Using the Rconsole file I can specify the size and location of the Rgui windows on NT. e.g. # Dimensions (in characters) of the console. rows = 51 columns = 100 How can I specify the size of the help windows that popups when I ask for help? e.g. '?help' I would like the popup window to have say rows = 51 a...

...ows, I want to change the gui to SDI mode. Edit -> GUI preferences Choose SDI Apply I get the message about properties not being able to be changed on a running console, and that I need to save. So I click Save, and am met with a "Save As" dialogue box with the default file called Rconsole, the file type as "All files". I have no idea where I actually have to save this. I saved it in C:\Program File\R\2.2.1 anyway, restarted the console, and SDI mode was not set. I realiuse I can use the --sdi option on the command line, but I want to know how to make this work through t...

...ences to get rid of the MDI toolbar and status bar. [ Under Windows XP and R 1.8.1 and 1.9.0.] When I uncheck the boxes and click "apply" I am told to save the preferences and the changes will take effect when restarting R. I click "save" and a box comes up to ask me to save Rconsole (I'm not sure where this should be saved but I navigate my way to where the old Rconsole was and save on top of it. Strangely I am not asked if I want to replace the old Rconsole. Anyway when I re-start there are no changes and I am still cluttered up by the MDI bars that I want to get rid...

Dear friend, I am trying to use R in Excel, I installed R-(D)COM (RSrv250_pl1)., and the rcom package (rcom_1.5-2.2). But when I try to start R in Excel, I got an strange error "error in C:\Program Files\R\R-2.5.1\etc\RConsole line 69". The line 69 is "language=". I modified it to "language=en" and that didn't help. Has anyone seen this, and what should I do?? Many thanks! jc [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

My day for dumb questions. How do I increase the type size in the Rgui console in Windows? (R-2.13.0, Windows 7) It looked to me that I just needed to change the font spec in Rconsole but that does not seem to be working. The R FAQ for Windows has a reference in Q3.4 to changing fonts, (Q5.2), but I don't see anything relevant there. Rconsole originally was: font = TT Courier New points = 10 style = normal # Style can be normal, bold, italic I changed this to points=14 a...

Dear R users: Today (December 18th) I downloaded R1.2.0 for Windows from ftp://ftp.stat.unipd.it/users/guido/RWin and then invoked its Rgui.exe to change its gui configuration. After I set new values in Rgui configuration Editor frame and saved the set of new parameters as a "Rconsole" file, then I re-started Rgui and R issued an error message concerning the buffer-line-value in the Rconsole file. When I looked into the Rconsole file, R seemed to complain about the following parameter-value setting: bufiles = 8192 At first I thought this was a value-side problem, but a...

Dear R-Experts, a student of mine tries to use the Windows-Rconsole with screen reading software (she is blind), and cannot access the command line (Menus are ok). The company which produces her screen reader tells her that this is due to the cursor used in Rconsole, which is static, not blinking. They maintain that if the cursor could be changed to a blinking one,...
