similar to: Rconsole file fails to remember GUI settings, and script

Am encountering two related problems since the 2.15 release. Apologies in advance for a mundane non code-related post, but you know how it is. I'm using the basic R GUI. 1: I use a black environment for no glare, so pre-version 2.15 I've had black backgrounds and white text. Since the 2.15 release my script window text has colour turned itself black (so is now invisible) and now I

Using R 2.9.2 on Windows XP SP3. 1. Edit ~/Rconsole, and set font = TT Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 2. Start Rgui.exe 3. Go to Edit, GUI Preferfences 4. Rgui.exe crashes Rgui.exe does not crash if I do not access GUI Preferences (i.e., if I just use R), and it does correctly use Bitstream Vera Sans Mono as my font. Nor does it crash if I edit RConsole to set the font back to Lucida Console and

R (Windows version) users/developers: While I have checked R-help/-devel mailing lists and R-bug-tracking system, this problem has not been reported so far. I would like to know whether this problem is specific to my machine. Lately I downloaded the version 1.5.0 patched [for windows] from http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre/ [patched: 2002-06-05] and

Hi, I was looking for a Windows-specific R function to focus the console window and couldn't find one. The motivation is that after loading the tcltk package, the "main" Tk window "." is presumably focused but then immediately withdrawn (hidden) so the RConsole loses its focus and you have to click on it to continue typing. Would there be any interest in including a

Hi, Using the Rconsole file I can specify the size and location of the Rgui windows on NT. e.g. # Dimensions (in characters) of the console. rows = 51 columns = 100 How can I specify the size of the help windows that popups when I ask for help? e.g. '?help' I would like the popup window to have say rows = 51 and columns = 100, just like the main window but a different location on the

Dear R-friends, After change (and saved) font style to "bold" in GUI preferences from menu-bar Edit, R 1.2.0, Win98, the "buflines" in the file Rconsole changed to "bufiles" and that causes error in invoking R next time. Is this a bug? Merry Christmas & Best regards, C. Joseph Lu Department of Statistics National Cheng-Kung University Tainan, Taiwan

Is it possible to change the behavior of RGui/RConsole under MS Windows so that, if you submit a bunch of commands from a script window, when they've finished, focus is given to the Console, and not (as now) to the script? ------------------------ Philip A.

Dear friend, I am trying to use R in Excel, I installed R-(D)COM (RSrv250_pl1)., and the rcom package (rcom_1.5-2.2). But when I try to start R in Excel, I got an strange error "error in C:\Program Files\R\R-2.5.1\etc\RConsole line 69". The line 69 is "language=". I modified it to "language=en" and that didn't help. Has anyone seen this, and what should I do??

Am just feeling my way into the grid library, and cannot figure out how to define the plot limits. 3/5 of the example polygons below plot in the default 0-1 range viewport. But when I try to redefine the viewport the polygons plot in the same places. I also get the same result without employing push/pop. (As you can see from the scale I'm trying to introduce, I want to plot map polygons.)

I changed my R console configurations, for example, the letters are white, the background is black, etc,... Then I saved this new configuration. What should I do if I want to have this new configuration everytime I open R? TIA

I'm using R on Windows XP Professional SP2. I figured out the fix for my buffer overflow problem that did not allow me to use Rgui.exe for about two weeks. I would keep getting "console not found" and even when I uninstalled and re-installed got the same problem. Here's how the problem started. In Rgui.exe, I attempted to get more visible output in the buffer (I wanted

I run R on MS Windows. In R2.9.0dev, I type ?base to get "R help for package base" to open. I then select ".First" from the list of contents, getting a page headed: "Initialization at Start of an R Session". About half way down there is a sentence: The command-line flag --vanilla implies --no-site-file, --no-init-file, --no-restore and --no-environ. Under

Hola! Starting with rw1071, just after starting Rgui the scope is not with Rconsole, but some other place. This means I have to do a mouse click in the Rconsole before starting to write the first command. Since I always forget this, I end up writing the first command twice. This is of course only a minor nuisance, but why is focus no longer set to Rconsole window when start-up? This is on

I want to modify my Gui preferences to get rid of the MDI toolbar and status bar. [ Under Windows XP and R 1.8.1 and 1.9.0.] When I uncheck the boxes and click "apply" I am told to save the preferences and the changes will take effect when restarting R. I click "save" and a box comes up to ask me to save Rconsole (I'm not sure where this should be saved but I navigate

My day for dumb questions. How do I increase the type size in the Rgui console in Windows? (R-2.13.0, Windows 7) It looked to me that I just needed to change the font spec in Rconsole but that does not seem to be working. The R FAQ for Windows has a reference in Q3.4 to changing fonts, (Q5.2), but I don't see anything relevant there. Rconsole originally was: font = TT Courier New points =

Dear R users: Today (December 18th) I downloaded R1.2.0 for Windows from ftp://ftp.stat.unipd.it/users/guido/RWin and then invoked its Rgui.exe to change its gui configuration. After I set new values in Rgui configuration Editor frame and saved the set of new parameters as a "Rconsole" file, then I re-started Rgui and R issued an error message concerning the buffer-line-value in the

Dear R-Experts, a student of mine tries to use the Windows-Rconsole with screen reading software (she is blind), and cannot access the command line (Menus are ok). The company which produces her screen reader tells her that this is due to the cursor used in Rconsole, which is static, not blinking. They maintain that if the cursor could be changed to a blinking one, she should be able to access

Hi I did a google search on this and came up with nothing. OK, in the latest release of R for windows, I want to change the gui to SDI mode. Edit -> GUI preferences Choose SDI Apply I get the message about properties not being able to be changed on a running console, and that I need to save. So I click Save, and am met with a "Save As" dialogue box with the default file called

Hola: Intento configurar R para que cuando se cargue (en una maquina con Windows 7) la consola de R aparezca maximizada dentro de la propia ventana de R. Tengo una serie de procesos diseñados para que se ejecuten al iniciar R y que sin la consola maximizada no permite ver el progreso de esos procesos. La ventana general de R si que aparece maximizada (usando el parámetro MDIsize = 0*0+0+0 del

Hello dear R-devel, When installing R 3.0.0 on Windows 7, and then running: require(tools) checkMD5sums(dir=R.home()) I get the following massage: files ‘etc/Rconsole’, ‘etc/Rprofile.site’ have the wrong MD5 checksums [1] FALSE This happens when using the 32 and the 64 bit version of R. And was also reported by 2 other users on other machines, as can be seen in the comments to this post:
