...difference. Am I wrong with the latter? Anyway, the behaviour is irritating, thus the request to at least mention `normalizePath` in the Rd of `Sys.readlink`.

Hi, Is it possible to create a boot floppy that I can use to start iso's that use say syslinux ? Dave T.

Dear developers, the implementation of S4 generics for existing S3 ones in the base package is concerned to be a threat to quick startup times [1]. But since S4 is promoted, and S3/S4 interoperability a pain when package developing [2], are there efforts to improve the situation? E.g. an S3 free system, etc. A good thing [2] is the package 'stats4', including some setGeneric calls (e.g.

...function (x) .Call("rs_browseURL", url)) else options(browser = browser) } url <- paste0("http://127.0.0.1:", hport, "/library/", pkg, "/html/00Index.html") browseURL(url, encodeIfNeeded = encodeIfNeeded) invisible(NULL) } (also at https://github.com/setempler/miscset/blob/master/R/help.index.R) I tried to avoid `:::` so I used the 00Index.html file from the library on my disk (like /home/user.foo/R/lib.bar/package.baz/html/00Index.html). It does show the index, but the link to the help pages are not accessible. Nevertheless, my implementation now works...

Hi, can I claim the warning that occurs (at R CMD check --as-cran) when I use 'library(ggplot2)' in executed vignette code as SPURIOUS (as mentioned in the CRAN policies at section 'Submission') and (since it is the only warning/error) get my package submission accepted? Has anybody experience with that? Otherwise, is there a workaround to evaluate this code (and calls to

Hi, I am trying to figure out a poor mans install ... I want to be able to boot CD iso thats on my hard disc .. There is an option to install via hard drive .. but I keep getting VFAT16 files system errors .. I know where copied iso image is ... I can boot kernel but linuxrc will not start LiveCD ...
