After "image" and "persp" would it be interesting to als have contour as a generic function?

This depends whether you want to compile the packages yourself (here you need the extra tools) or just install the pre-compiled versions (here you don't need them). I would guess that most of the Windows users just do the latter and the installation is then straighforward by using the option "Packages" on the top menu. You can donload/install from CRAN or from a local zip file.

Hi I'm looking to a function in R equivalent to S-PLUS' "interp". Is there any implementation in R? If not, is there any similar interpolation function such that at the data points the interpolated values concides with the data? Thanks in advance P.J.

I'd like to check within a whether an argument is a formulae of the type ~X or similar. What's the right way to do so? I'm using: is.language(obj) but not sure this is right Thanks in advance P.J.

Hi, I run into a problem with "R CMD Rd2dvi" command: it gives me "File `Rd.sty' not found" error (See the output message on the bottom). I get the same error when running "RCMD check". My system is: Windows 2000, R version 2.0.1, MiKTeX version 2.4. I do have a Rd.sty file in R_HOME/share/texm directory. I looked through newsgroups for any related discussions

This isn't a syslinux issue, but I don't see a mailing list setup for the zisofs tools. Forgive me if this is sent to the wrong place. The sloppy option does not work as documented in the mkzftree man page. Here is the patch I used to enable it. --- zisofs-tools-1.0.7/mkzftree.c.sloppy 2007-05-15 08:42:20.000000000 -0400 +++ zisofs-tools-1.0.7/mkzftree.c 2007-05-15

Dear R people We have two packages, where the first package (geoR) is required by the second (geoRglmm). Both packages have functions calling C-code via .C(). We would like to call C-functions included in the first package from within the C-code in the second package. Is this possible? An appropriate header file was included in the src directory of the second package but this alone did not

Christian -- This is not a bug, but a feature, and the dot is not the issue here. R uses partial argument matching on function arguments. So: > f <- function(foobar = 0){print(foobar)} > f function(foobar = 0){print(foobar)} > > f(fo=1) [1] 1 > f(foo=1) [1] 1 > f(foob=1) [1] 1 > f(fooba=1) [1] 1 > f(foon=1) Error in f(foon = 1) : unused argument(s) (foon ...)

Hi Just wondering where the 'sloppy focus' key in scale. It seems to have been removed -SmSpillaz

If I execute R CMD Rd2dvi foo.Rd I get messages of the form: Converting Rd files to LaTeX ... foo.Rd Creating dvi output from LaTeX ... Saving output to 'foo.dvi' ... cp: .Rd2dvi4366/Rd2.dvi: No such file or directory Done xdvi-xaw: Fatal error: foo.dvi: No such file. Indeed if I add the --no-clean flag and then cd to the .Rd2dvi<whatever> directory, I find that there is no

hi, can anyone confirm the following problem? when i do dos> rcmd rd2dvi --pdf my-package-name i get dos> Can't open perl script "c:\PROGRA~1\r\rw1091/bin/rd2dvi": No such file or directory might the problem be in (double back slashes rather than forward slashes) R-1.9.1\src\gnuwin32\front-ends\rcmdfn.c(251): strcat(cmd, RHome); strcat(cmd, "/bin/Rd2dvi.sh");

I'd like to make MikTeX the default TeX package in 2.2.0, but we still need to let people use other packages. The problem is that MikTeX wants a command line option --include-directory $R_HOME/share/texmf, while other packages specify includes via environment variables, and barf when they see the unexpected option. The choice should be controlled by the user's settings in the MkRules

Dear all, Paulo Ribeiro, p.ribeiro@lancaster.ac.uk, and myself noticed that R sometimes breaks down with a segmentation fault of (at least for us) unknown course. (We've read #411 and #671 in the bug report on "optim" -- the problem described there sounds familiar; but we have not found any hint on a segmentation fault.) Please find at the very end of this email the file

Hi, I run R 2.5.1 on Mac OS 10.4.10 and fail to build a package manual. Below is the transcript. The problem is a "pdflatex: command not found" error but I think that I have a fully working latex install (installed with iInstaller) as I use TeXShop with no problem. Could someone help?

First I tried 'setenv R_SHELL /usr/local/bin/bash', as bash is the weapon of choice for the faculty wishing to use R, then ran ./configure as before. The ./configure output line using as R_SHELL for scripts ... /usr/local/bin/bash would seem to indicate that the R_SHELL environment variable was recognized and acknowledged. However, I got the same build error: gnumake[2]: Entering

When I create a manual for a package that I create and use locally, e.g. via R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf foo where ``foo'' is the name of the directory containing the source for the package (also named ``foo'') the resulting manual does not appear to have an index. The package.pdf files appearing on CRAN all seem to have indices. What must I do to get an index appended to the

Hi all, I face the following problem. I have two variables x,y. I have also calculated the surface z. When I am drawing the surface with function >levelplot (in library lattice) everything is OK. I have the legend etc ... Then I am trying to plot x,y on the same graph. So I am doing : >points(x,y) But, the points are not in the correct position. They are a little bit shifted to the

Is there any way of getting just the LaTex output which R CMD Rd2dvi generates on the way to produces a .dvi file, which could then be incoorporated into another document?
