I have built a version of the current 1.2.2 patched version of R using Inno Setup2 (http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.htm). (That toolkit is open source (in Delphi) and was fairly easy to tame. Full details are in the R-patched sources.) This gives a single ~10Mb file, at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/SetupR.exe The idea is that it should look very like a Windows 2000-style install, and

We have removed from CRAN the seemingly faulty version of R 1.4.0 for Windows and replaced it by the one I built on Dec 20 that is known to work with grid and lattice. I've built a SetupR-patched.exe today from the current R-patched sources and with the latest versions of the recommended packages. You might prefer to change to that if you want to re-install: otherwise wait for R 1.4.1 in a

Guido has fixed Rterm hanging on Windows 2000 in interactive and --ess modes. The problem was that 'PulseEvent' doesn't work under 2000 as documented (and I can find nothing about this in MicroSoft's Knowledge Base except that it is known to happen under a debugger). The cross-compiled pre-release at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre now incoporates the fix, and we

To: Windows Users ----------------- We would appreciate your comments on future possibilities for help on Windows systems. I have put up a pre-test version based on the current R-release snapshot at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/rwtest999.zip (ca 4.5Mb) ftp://ftp.stats.ox.ac.uk/.... (999 means Sept 1999, BTW). This has (i) text help (ii) HTML help to be viewed in Netscape/IE*

Windows binaries for 1.4.1 are available at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin and will mirror across CRAN over the next couple of days. SetupR.exe in this release contains the grid and lattice packages. These have been built on the same system as the second release of rw1040 and R-patched so I do not anticipate any problems but have only been able to test them on Windows 2000. This is a

I've put up a build of the current R-patched (and updated recommended packages) for Windows at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre/SetupRpatched.exe This should be able to rename files on Win 9x (unlike the mid-May build) and can build packages accessing Rblas.dll. As ever, this is less tested than an official release, in particular only on Windows XP, but ought to have fewer

Charles Raux raised the problem of having object names with accented chars in. This is supposed to work, but depends on the machine being set to a locale that allows accented chars, and knowing correctly which they are. Windows being what it is, this is a problem. It seems that with the standard runtime crtdll.dll that rw1011 uses, Windows 9x does not know about locales, whereas NT does but

Hi all, I installed rw1031 but not uninstalled rw1030 just to make sure everything was working normally with the new version. After few weeks, I'm ready to uninstal rw1030. My question is: should I use the rw1030 unins00.exe program or could this program damage the rw1031 inatallation (perhaps modifies the registry...) ? Perhaps should I just delete the rw1030 directory? Thanks Dr.

Several of you have kindly sent me examples of bugs in RODBC, but none of them reproduce on my systems. I am fairly sure I know what is happening, and that it is client-specific. (Do empty strings get returned as "", NULL or skipped?) Also, empty character fields were getting mapped to NA. There's a comment in the code that fields need to set to a null string, and that was only

syskern (`Functions for writing code that is OS and R/S independent', an amazing description given the reality) fails Rcmd check on Windows, and also gives incorrect information where it does work. There are already correct OS-independent functions for these purposes in R. It appears not to be needed to run the other three packages in the dse bundle, but to be the only R package that

Under which version of R is it supposed to run ? With 1.1.0 under windows NT 4.0 against Access databases it doesn't work, I cannot get the name of the tables, every query I execute returns with "No Data". I'm surely doing something wrong ...
