similar to: re trieve user input from an tcl/tk interface

I'm trying to read a binary file created by a fortran code using readBin and readChar. Everything reads fine (integers and strings) except for double precision numbers, they are read as huge or very small number (1E-250,...). I tried various endianness, swap, But nothing has worked so far. I also tried on R 64 bit for linux and windows (R 2.14) and R 2.11 on windows XP 32 bit. Any help would

I can set up an entry widget (thanks to an old post by Barry Rowlingson) that gets a password and exits when the user clicks on the "OK" button. Anyone have any clever ideas for returning/ destroying the window when the user types a carriage return/ENTER in the text window? I've messed around a little with validate, validatecommand, but don't see any obvious way to do it ...

Hi - I'm creating a package of database tools. A function in the package requires the username and password as input to the function in order to initially connect to the target database(s). Of course, this poses a significant security issue given the possible retention of the function statement in cleartext. I did not readily encounter a package meant to mask input from the user nor do I

Hello, On Mac OS X, certain Aqua/Quartz UI functionality requires an application to be launched from within an app bundle, or (alternatively) requires a Carbon application with a resource fork. Playing with the wxWidgets distribution, I discovered that it is quite easy and transparent to make such a Carbon app from (I guess) any command line application. When applied to the R executable called

hello list, Can someone help me figure out why the following code doesn't work? I'm trying to but both Greek letters and subscripts into a tcltk menu. The code creates all the mu's, and the 1 and 2 subscripts, but it won't create the 0. Is there a certain set of characters that R won't recognize the unicode for? Or am I input the \u2080 incorrectly? library(tcltk) m

Friends: I am a long-time R user, learning tcl/tk, and am tying myself in knots over something that should be simple. I want to create a frame and put that frame inside the toplevel frame. This works (i.e. it places text in col 1, and the corresponding entry box in column 2) and later frame.2 resides where it should in the toplevel frame. tkgrid(tklabel(frame.2, text="FACTOR column

I searched the web and the list archives for a solution to this, but didn't see anything, so here goes. I'm new to tcltk. I'm trying to change the contents of a tkentry widget when a button is pressed. Once I get that working, the widget will be read only to the user. Here is some toy code: ############### require(tcltk) thisEnv=environment() tt<-tktoplevel() Name <-

Hi, I am working under Windows and I am using R2.11 I want to use tkscale in my GUI. As the interval is quite big, I can't set the scale to a certain specific value. Therefore I want to add tkentry to allow the user to set tkscale to a certain value. Here is the code library(tcltk) tt<-tktoplevel() tkpack(m1<-tkscale(tt,from=306870.00, to=3026741, label="alpha",

Dear R-users, I would like to build N "tkentry" compounds in the same window, with default text for each. As N is variable I need to construct them in an iterative way : library(tcltk) main<-tktoplevel() tktitle(main)<-"My Tool" filenames<-c("toto","tata","titi") N<-length(filenames) for (i in 1: N) {

Hello, I am sorry if this is an answered question, but I did my homework for a long while and couldn't figure out a way to retrieve data entry from a model dialog. In one of the examples compiled by James Wettenhall: odalDialog <- function(title, question, entryInit, entryWidth = 20, returnValOnCancel = "ID_CANCEL") { dlg <- tktoplevel() tkwm.deiconify(dlg)

Hello, I?m using R 2.11.1 with Tinn-R 1.17.2.4. I hope the given informations are enough (it?s my first entry here) The as.environment(pos) error appears in using the following code which should open a function in an other R-file. Here some extractions of the code: .... HZ<-tclVar(seq(length=a,from=1,by=0)) #(a is defined by a tkentry-element) VZ<-tclVar(seq(length=a,from=1,by=0))

Dear all, I'm trying to use tcltk to build a small user-interface and couter the problem: It seems that sometimes the dialog box will be minimized automatically though I want it to be on top of the screen all the time. For example, when runing the following code, if you type in "a1", "a2", "a3", etc when being asked for an integer, the program is supposed to

Dear experts, I am trying to understand why is it that when I paste (into the R console) the following code to select an option from a list: require(tcltk) tt<-tktoplevel() tl<-tklistbox(tt,height=ntx,selectmode="single",background="white") tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="Select the legend of" )) tkgrid(tl) treatments<<-levels.tx for(i in

Hello, everyone. I have the following problem with TclTk: I create some windows and want to change their position with geometry manage (sometimes they will be centered, sometimes not). If the toplevel is created and its dimensions are gathered via 'tkwinfo', I get (usually) correct values. However, if this window is created by a function (in the following example, by 'ask.format')

Hello, I have a problem with a tklistbox. The user should be able to choose one out of two calculation methods needed for further calculations. My r-script for that purpose looks like that: require(tcltk) tt<-tktoplevel() tl<-tklistbox(tt,height=4,selectmode="single",background="white") tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="select method for LAI

Hello, I'm very new in working with tcl/tk in R and have a problem which will probably sound silly to most of you. Here is the code I have problems with: readcelfiles <- function() { require(tcltk) tt <- tktoplevel() tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="Choose a directory!")) OnOK <- function() { fileDir<-tclvalue(tkchooseDirectory()) data.raw <-

DeaR list, I am writing a user friendly script for an interactive use of R. The user is supposed to click on a bat-File in Windows-environment and to enter some values in a pop-up window. Let us assume we have the script given below. If she sources this script within R, everything works smoothly. The pop-up window jumps and patiently waits her to enter the value. For this to work she has to start

Hello, I'm very much a newbie in R and more so in tcltk so apologies if this question is stupid. Basically I am trying to use the combobox example found here: http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/DropDown.html . What I want to do is in that example get fruitChoice as a variable in R in general. When I run that code, however, and the ask for fruitChoice it says
