similar to: unix like commands in R?

Sometimes I print out a package and read about it and there are sometimes nice examples that I would like to run myself. Is there a way to bring them into R from the package or are they only meant to be typed in manually ? If manual is the only way, that's fine. I was just checking whether there was a quicker way. Thanks. Mark

R-users, (forgive my return adres) I've been breaking my head why R---which i find fabulous, by the way---does not pipe interactive output through a pager (more or less), like it does with help(), or like GNU Octave does with arrays with more than terminal height rows. Maybe it is my installation (Debian/GNU Linux). Maybe it is my configuration, but i don't think so because with

Dear list: I know this may be an old question. I know how to install the packages to a different directory, for example, /home/zrl/tmp and I know how to load it >library("genefilter",lib.loc="/home/zrl/tmp") but I found some package(for example package A) will have to load some other packages as well, and this time package A will look for the package in the original

Dear list, I have a question regarding how to allocate or initialize the proper type of the arrays or lists. I have a for loop, each iteration, I want it to assign a subset of a data frame to an element of an array or list. However, I am wondering how I should initialize or allocate the empty array or list so that it has the same number of the elements as the subsets I am going to assign and

Hi, as pointed out by Neal Gompa, Mageia recently introduced dnf in the distribution (currently only in Cauldron, which is the future Mageia 6), and most probably it will replace urpmi in the future. As such, on Mageia make supermin prefer dnf over urpmi when found, using the same code already used for Fedora. Related change: make test-harder.sh work explicitly also on Mageia

dir(all=TRUE) returns the file names "." and ".." while dir(recursive=TRUE, all=TRUE, include.dirs=TRUE) does not. I always filter out the "." and ".." entries and was wondering if anyone would mind if dir(all=TRUE) just omitted them? It might make recursive file operations like cleaning out a directory safer, as unlink(recursive=TRUE, dir(all=TRUE,

Bind and use rpmvercmp to compare versions of packages when sorting them, instead of an own string-based comparison function. --- src/librpm-c.c | 12 ++++++++++++ src/librpm.ml | 1 + src/librpm.mli | 1 + src/rpm.ml | 2 +- 4 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/librpm-c.c b/src/librpm-c.c index 1ae3bad..fc847d6 100644 --- a/src/librpm-c.c +++

Dear R Core: In the kutils package, I wrote a function that is so handy that I would like to ask you put it in R itself. file.backup() will look at a file, find its last modification time, and create a new backup with a name that appends YYYYMMDD-HHMM to the file name. So now, whenever I worry that running write.csv or saving a graph might destroy something valuable, I use an idiom like fn

Hello rsync list, I am running a Solaris 8 system and have rsync 1.6.2 protocal 14 installed. We have updated (wed 17-dec) to the latest Solaris 8 recommended patch set. When performing an rsync of two local UFS partitions rsync "hung", never completed, didn't exit. What I forced an exit via kill signal core dumped. Config of disks is that 1) Mirror by Solistice Disksuite rsync to

I want to do something like this: 30 2 * * * MAILTO=testaddr at harte-lyne.ca; echo "this should be mailed" I have searched extensively and from what I have read I believe that this should work. But evidently I misapprehend how cron and MAILTO is supposed to work as my example does not cause any mail to be sent as far as I can determine from maillog. How does one specify unique

The marilith boxes use a conserver (http://www.conserver.com/) setup for serial access. Our installation exports the logs via http allowing us to grab them with wget. Sending debug keys with is handled separately via xenuse. xenuse ultimately speaks to the conserver too but it abstracts away the IP and port to use so this is preferred. With these changes the correct Serial hostprop for a

Dear R users I get different F-statistic results for a "within" model, when using "time" or "twoways" effects in plm() [1] and when manually specifying the time control dummies [2].

Thank you Gabriel, Just for future readers. Below is a base R way to address this common problem, as instructed by you (+stopifnot to suppress print). Rscript -e 'stopifnot(file.copy("DESCRIPTION", file.path(tdir<-tempdir(), "PACKAGES"))); db<-available.packages(paste0("file://", tdir));

I have inconsistent directory listing on share mounted on linux from windows 2k. Some time not all files appear in the directory listing. If reading directory listing multiple times (60-200 times) files listed originally would have one or two files missing in one of consecutive lists. The same problem appear as well if you are making backup of Windows files from multiple directories, there are

Does opensolaris iSCSI target support SCSI-3 PGR reservation ? My goal is to use the iSCSI LUN created by [1] or [2] as a quorum device for a 3-node suncluster.

In a package, i type a function name and got the following message: ... tmp <- .Fortran("master", x = as.double(x), y = as.double(y), sort = as.logical(sort), rw = as.double(rw), npd = as.integer(npd), ntot = as.integer(ntot), nadj = integer(tadj), madj = as.integer(madj), ind = integer(npd), tx = double(npd), ty = double(npd),

Here is a trivial reason why I have not propagated http://bb.pgr.jp/ . Sometimes (but I suppose rarely) he reports false alarm in a few points. He'd send blames to the llvm-testresults if his master (aka I) knew he were mature. I don't also want him promoted and called as one of official buildbots. He is my pet, though, I expect he should be helpful to the developers. ...Takumi

Hi All, Two and three-node clusters with SC3.2 and S10u3 (120011-14). If a node is rebooted when using SCSI3-PGR the node is not able to take the zpool by HAStoragePlus due to reservation conflict. SCSI2-PGRE is okay. Using the same SAN-LUN:s in a metaset (SVM) and HAStoragePlus works okay with PGR and PGRE. (both SMI and EFI-labled disks) If using scshutdown and restart all nodes then it will
