ISSUE: On MS Windows, running cmd.exe, calling Rscript --vanilla -e "port <- tools::startDynamicHelp(); port; port <- tools::startDynamicHelp(FALSE); port" will sometimes stall R at the end, preventing it from existing. This also happens when running R in interactive mode. It seems to stem from calling tools::startDynamicHelp(FALSE). Before filing a formal bug report, can

I have updated R 2.9.1 to 2.10.0. and JGR GUI 1.7. I am running Windows XP. I can't seem to get the JGR "Print" or "Help" functions to work. The system locks and requires me to "stop the process". In the past I have preferred the opreation and "feel" of JGR GUI. I realize that this help forum is for R; but, I am hoping that some other R-user is

I have persuaded my company to move towards an RoR shop... from a PHP 5 (with in-house-built framework)... so the jump is not terribly bad. I''m REALLY excited actually! My problem: I am overwhelmed with all the setup Loops I have to jump through to get RoR setup. I tried it on my current Apache 1.34 and decided it''d be easier to make the Lighty (1.4.11) jump. So I did. I get

Hello, I wrote a function to show the help/index page of a package in a browser (and want to include this in an update for a CRAN package). I asked in R-help how to obtain the 00Index.html file, Duncan Murdoch suggested to inspect (see http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Obtain-00Index-html-tt4697661.html) tools:::httpd (thank you therefore!). So I came up with: help.index <- function (pkg,

Thank you for confirming this. I just filed PR#18650 (https://bugs.r-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18650).

R has a native HTTP server that is used for serving R help pages interactively, at least on the loopback device (127.0.0.1) But all of the working are internal, not exposed to user and not documented. This is quite shame since the server seems to be fully capable of handling basic tasks, be it serving static websites or even interactively processing queries. This was previously noticed by

Hi, Each > help.start() generates a new tree of the R help system, somewhere in 127.0.0.1:xxx, each xxx being difeerent. This tree disappears when exiting R. How can the current help tree copied to a permanent place for reference outside a running R? This would be practical for not having to enter M-x R . TIA --Christian -- Christian W.

Ji??, in a sense there are two quite different issue that you are touching upon. On one hand, your request for exposing the http server is something I was pretty much expecting. In order to judge the appetite for it I have included the support for custom handlers back then as inofficial API specifically so that if anyone cares we could work on refining it (really only Jeff and Hadley ever asked

I've found that the HTML help system started via help.start() requires all forward slashes in R_LIBS_USER otherwise the Packages page is corrupt/non-working. Note that by default R_LIBS_USER is set by R on startup. Example 1: With R_LIBS_USER=C:/Users/JohnDoe/R/win-library/2.10 > help.start() [and go to "Packages"] If nothing happens, you should open

Dear Simon and Jeroen, thank you for your answers. I have to reiterate that I am out of my depth in here. My knowledge of http is clicking links and not much beyond that. I will definitely look into `webutils` and `Rserve`. One of the reason why I brought this issue is that I have a static site generator that uses the pkg `servr` to serve the static site locally, before I push it to github

I recently ran into the following problem: when running ''rake clone_structure_to_test'', the task would spit out the following error twice: This program requires Microsoft SQLDMO 7.0 or later After many attempts to download this library, I reinstalled the SQL Server Client Tools. Still nothing. I tracked down the program that rake was having problems with: scptxfr.exe.

I absolutely appreciate the desire for minimalism. On the other hand Rserve has no dependencies other than R >= 1.5.0 (!!!), so you would in any case be cutting your dependencies way down (`servr` has 16 recursive dependencies of which 5 seem to be base/recommended, presumably this is where your count of 12 came from; `Rserve` has none).
