Jim, you should ask questions like these on R-devel.

The newest version of R for Unix (version 0.50 alpha-1) is now (or will soon be) available from the following sites.

Batch: For me, batch in its present state is broken and useless. My primary need for batch is to produce a final output file of a session after I have worked out a sequence of procedures. I save my instructions in a file that I can source, then run it in batch to have a copy of input and output together. (If there was a log file (or dribble), this problem would be solved.) At present, there are

I am currently attempting to install R on our DEC Alpha computer, and am having a little trouble. I have f2c installed in lieu of a Fortran compiler, and have installed libf2c in a subdirectory below where f2c lives, although as you can see below, libf2c is not being found during configuration. I'm not sure what I would need to do to rectify this. However, my main problem is with the

I'm a bit confused about this discussion, but since I don't have f2c on the computer I've been using the past week, I assume most of the necessary parts on this library have been distributed with R (but I

I have a problem with my dynamically loaded code in R not finding pow_ii, which for some time I thought was because library f2c is not on my Sparcstation. However, I have now been experiencing the same problem in Linux, with all the proper libraries in place. My incomplete understanding of elf and shared libraries does not help, but when compiling a complete program I usually muddle through.

Hi, I appear to have a slight problem compiling R0.65.0 under Linux (slackware) using g77. By simply typing configure then make, I obtain a binary which when "ldd" does not contain the f2c library. I therefore cannot load any libraries containing fortran code (I obtain unresolved symbol messages from R.X11 and an unable to load shared library from dyn.load(file)). If I change the

This may be considered a newbie question, and for me, yum is a new tool. I have discovered via yum, I am *supposed* to have libf2c (386) and libf2c (x86-64) installed. Searching the two libs, I find I only have the 32-bit version installed, and I need both. Should I use yum to remove the pkgs, and then reinstall, or should I use rpm to do the installs? Again, I'm from the BSD camp, so

Here is a proposal: At present when you specify a color with an integer it is taken as an index into a fixed table of 8 colors. 1=red, 2=green, 3=blue, 4=cyan, 5=magenta, 6=yellow, 7=white, 8=black [At least this is the intention, there may be bugs in the implementation]. Since I am looking at this anyway (to see if I can see the bug that Martin and Kurt have mentioned) I thought I might

Martin Your revisions to my S--R compatability code suggest that tempfile() is in R after 0.49. I don't find that to be the case. It requires code from Friedrich Leisch which still has to be added as of 0.50 alpha3.

Hi, when designing libraries for R, is it possible to call C/Fortran subroutines from other dynamically loaded code? The following example crashes R: ********* fn1.c ***************** void twice(int *i) { *i = 2 * *i; } ********************************* ********* fn2.c ***************** extern int twice(int *i); void negtwice(int *i) { *i = -1 * twice(i); }

Jeez I dunno - it compiles perfectly and you guys get excited just because it doesn't work :-) I have to admit to being baffled about what happened (I'm SURE this was working not long ago), but here is a quick fix. The problem is in the function "GetCharInfo" in the file src/unix/PostScript.c. The fix is to change the statement if(nchar < 0) return 0; to if(nchar <

Anybody interested in the S maps library for R? I have ported a limited version of the software for a Unix platform, and would be happy to make it available for anybody interested. If there is a lot of interest then I will submit it to CRAN. I know that Ross Ihaka is working on a new version for R, which does not have some of the limitations of the original S version. My version does not do

Hi there, Does it already exist a library in R to draw maps (something like a Generic Mapping Toolbox, http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/ port). I've seen in an old R-help that Ross Ihaka once tried to port the S-plus map library (http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/99b/0832.html ). Anybody know if this package is available somewhere or if there is somebody developing a Mapping package
