I wanted to ask to the wine experts something about WINEPREFIX or the crossover bottles... how does the concept of "bottles" compares/differs with the concept of application virtualization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_Virtualization) used by VMware's Thinstall (http://www.thinstall.com/products/virtualization_suite.php) (aside for the .exe container*) and

Hi, I've a problem with FirefoxPortable and ThunderbirdPortable (a version of Firefox and Thunderbird from PortableApps). The were running fine until some weeks ago but, I guess after a system upgrade (I use arch linux) which included wine upgrade they don't start anymore. Anyone has experience of them working under wine 1.3.5 (the current versione of wine)? Or has an idea about the cause

Recently I came across an interesting web site: http://portableapps.com/. The idea is simple, this is software that is possible to install and run on some type of USB memory, a stick or one of these hard disks. I can think of a number of situations where this could be handy. In addition memory sticks are getting cheaper and more powerful by the day. So: Is it possible to run R off one of

Hi all, I Use thunderbird and firefox, and sometimes Seamonkey on my job (onto windows 7, 64 bits) and at home (under Ubuntu 11.10 64 bits), so for that, I use Wine, which was very nice until few weeks when I had error message and that doesn't worked more... For this use, I use portable software (from portable apps), and I already post my problem on other forums

I noticed a shQuote fix for Windows in the svn logs. Just wanted to point out that this will favorably affect texi2dvi on Windows which previously used UNIX quoting and so generated an incorrect Windows command. (Note that texi2dvi is used when creating vignettes.) Another problem is that the recommended tex distribution for Windows, fptex, does not have texi2dvi in the first place. The

Hi, I am trying to create a Bioconductor package. Everything installs and checks fine. Now I'm on my last step, which is to create a vignette. I'm trying to test the Sweave process, to make sure I can build a vignette. I am stuck at the texi2dvi stage, which fails when I try to process the example Sweave-test-1.tex file. I am using Windows binary R distributions, and have the same

MiKTeX has abruptly removed texi2dvi.exe from its distribution. (MiKTeX broke its updating process earlier and an attempted update trashed the updater on my installation so I was forced to make a fresh install of the current distribution. I do not know if updates remove a currently installed texi2dvi.exe.) This has two consequences: 1) It is used by tools::texi2dvi() if found. As far as I

I want to include a vignette with a package I wrote. I did follow the "Writting R extentions" document step by step, but went I run "Rcmd build", an error occurs. It goes like this: " * creating vignettes ... ERROR . . . . :7: Emergency stop L7L ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!texify: pdflatex failed for some reason <see log file>.

Hello A lot of windows application need access to an USB port. For Wine a library (or a patch) exists to manage that but it is not include in the "official" release. If we want to work with this USB port, we have to compile a personal version of Wine, but this is not really obvious for every body. Why this feature is not include in the release ? Do you plan an official release with

Hey folks, I'm experiencing some weird errors all of a sudden. I have not made any changes to the config but for some reason I cannot create files/directories on my network share. An example would be the error I get when I try to update the virus signatures on my portable ClamWin install: ERROR: Can't open ..\..\..\Data\log\ClamScanLog.txt in append mode (check permissions!). ERROR:

Hello: Changes in R seem to have broken the sos vignette, and I don't know how to fix it. The build on R-forge, "https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=235&log=build_src&pkg=sos&flavor=patched", ends as follows: Error in texi2dvi(file = file, pdf = TRUE, clean = clean, quiet = quiet, : Running 'texi2dvi' on 'sos.tex' failed.

Dear expeRts, below are two examples of using texi2dvi. The problem becomes clear from the second example: on cleaning, texi2dvi also deletes the generated .pdf file. Is there a solution? Cheers, Marius ## Example 1: texi2dvi cleans fine, without deleting the generated .pdf require(tools) sink(file="myLaTeXFile1.tex") cat("\\documentclass{article}\n")

Dear all, I was hoping someone may know a way of running texi2dvi while ignoring bibtex errors, or any other work around (such as not running bibtex at all, if possible). The context is that I have an R program that does some calculations and writes a table into various folders, one per country for several countries. I have a latex file that takes the table as an input, and this latex file is
