I realise that there is an existing system for documenting datasets but what I would like is to be able to whack a few lines of commentary at the top of a file which contains data -- not full documentation but just an outline for myself to remind me of what I was doing or what settings I was using, etc. I was thinking that the read.table() function might be extended to support an option allowing

I'm a bit confused about the nls package, I'm trying to use it for curve fitting. First off, the documentation for nls says ``see `nlsControl' for the names of the settable control values'' -- this is wrong, it should be nls.control (minor point but had me confused for a moment). Now I'll try something very simple (maybe too simple):

I would like to know if a MetaPost device is available or in the plans. A search MetaPost in the documents and list archives did not turn up anything. [I would prefer to use MetaPost when the graphics is to be included in a document that I want in both hard-copy and in pdf formats.] If not, how easy/hard is it to add a new device to R? I caouln't see anything about adding devices in the

For a long time now I've been using a function: classed <- function (x, cls) { class(x) <- cls x } as a utility at the end other functions to set the class of an object and return the object. I've noticed examples where others have been doing a similar thing and I think it would be a useful addition to R base (unless there is already something there to do this - it

Hi! Installing an application of mine under Wine 0.9.15, the application icon doesn't appear in the desktop and in the Wine -> Programs -> <application> menu because diring the setup I get the following error: --- err:menubuilder:ExtractFromICO Invalid ico file format err:menubuilder:InvokeShellLinker failed to fork and exec winshelllink --- The icon is obviously ok under

Here is how to print graphs for inclusion in Latex. First make sure you've got the graph you want. Do this by repeating and editing the command to make the graph, in the usual way. (Yes, I know Miktex is good, but it isn't as good as Emacs with ESS, although I admit that I could never configure Emacs properly on Windows - which was reason #23.5 for giving up Windows.) Second, say

As a complete newcomer I am attempting to learn to use R, but am finding it extremely difficult because I have not yet found an "Introduction to R". For over a week now I have monitored the R-help list, studied the R-FAQ and related documents, downloaded and run the Windows R and looked at the Help, downloaded early and late samples of the R-help archives, and searched for illuminating

Hallo, I am a newbie to R and desperatley seeking some material about fractal geometry. I found the great library on wavelet analysis of images and I'm now also keen on finding a similar package for calculating fractal parameters for given images. Does anybody know something about such a package? Every hint is greatly appreciated!! I searched already the database, but did not find anything

Hey everyone, I have a series of thumbnails that have a loading overlay placed over them when they''re clicked on. The overlay is set to an opacity of .7.. .The onclick code looks basically does this: var loading = document.createElement(''div''); loading.id = ''loading_image''; $(loading).addClassName(''thumb_loading'');

I've been putting together a package that defined generic methods for database access. The packages is called "Rdbi." It borrows as much as possible from existing database packages / proposals. I'd like to start a discussion about the proposed interface. Here's what I've come up with so far: # # Rdbi: connectionMethods.R # dbConnect <- function(dbObj, ...)

I see some code in R to attach finalizers to external pointer references (Register[C]Finalizer). Anyone have an example of how to code the finalizer? R_RegisterCFinalizer accepts a C function, but I can't see how to get it to operate on the pointer, since the pointer is not passed to the function when its called. RegisterFinalizer takes an R closure, but how is it called from R (tried

I haven't seen this in the options, and have been unsuccessful in trying it... Is there any way to set oggenc to accept data (file) input from stdin? basically do a raw PCM stream from CDParanoia -> oggenc without an intermediary file.

They have lines on them that are not supposed to be there. I have noticed this on numerous trials of printing various images. I looked at the postscript and I see that it appears to plot each individual block - so perhaps

Martin and I have `written' a function apropos() for finding all objects with names matching pattern. I attach code and documentation. Perhaps one could include it in the distribution proper. We are not sure about returning the position in the search list along with the matching names found. Martin thinks it should be on by default, I think it should be off so that the functions does the
