Is the anonymous CVS repository for R presently broken? There haven't been many updates coming through and the repository files seem to differ significantly from the rsync version of R-devel...

I encountered some wierdness when building R-devel (latest rsync) on OSX using commandline tools (as opposed to the Carbon GUI and whatnot...probably just laziness on my part but it generally works :-)). At any rate, sometime between 2002-07-05 and the present the configure scripts started setting INSTALL_DATA to ${R_HOME}/bin/install -c in Makeconf...which causes wierdness for the Mac OSX

For the last, I dunno, week or so I've been unable to build R... I finally took the time to investigate and the crash is in building 'methods': all.R is unchanged ../../../library/methods/man/methods.Rd is unchanged make[2]: `Makedeps' is up to date. ../../../../library/methods/libs/methods.so is unchanged make[1]: Nothing to be done for `Rfiles'. Any clues to where this

Hi all (especially R-core) I suppose, With the introduction of the new functional programming functions into base I thought I'd ask for a Curry() function. I use a simple one that looks this: Curry = function(FUN,...) { .orig = list(...);function(...) do.call(FUN,c(.orig,list(...))) } This comes in really handy when using say, heatmap():

Has anyone taken a shot at a Cairo graphics device yet? I half expected to see one on either Paul's pages or Omegahat. :-) --- Byron Ellis (ellis at stat.harvard.edu) "Oook" -- The Librarian

Hello, I've been playing around w/ the new dynamic C symbol stuff (thank you for doing that!) in the, um, 5/11/01 R-devel package and, unless I've missed something incredibly obvious, there doesn't appear to be a mechanism for registering functions of an embedding executable. It seems like this would be a Good Thing to have. Since I'm doing most of my work in Windows at the

Hi all, I'm having a problem with some sort of interaction with try() and methods, I think. The setup is as follows, I have an S4 class that holds an environment and I would like to evaluate the right hand side of a function inside that environment. No problem there. However, if the formula involves a symbol that doesn't exist, which may or may not happen, it fails as it should and

Some quick questions about S4 methods. Does the typing of S4 methods mean that lazy evaluation is no longer possible? It seems that you would need to evaluate the arguments to determine their type at dispatch. Second, what role, if any, do default arguments play in S4 methods? I notice that you can put default arguments into generics but that the dispatch is still done on the type of the

So, consider the following: > example(glm) > g = function(model) { w = runif(9);glm(model,weights=w); } > g(counts ~ outcome + treatment) Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object "w" not found Huh?! I suspect that somebody is lazily evaluating arguments in the wrong environment (probably GlobalEnv in this case). I'm willing to accept the fact that there's

Dear R-help, (This is the first time I tried compiling 1.6.x from source on WinNT4, so please bear with me...)

According to ?pcre_config, just-in-time compilation support in the PCRE library <http://pcre.org/> is "desirable for speed". However, it seems that the pattern matching functions defined in src/main/grep.c make no effort to utilize the possible JIT support. Therefore it appears that currently R does not benefit from JIT support in PCRE. The attached patch is an attempt to enable

Could it be possible for packages to have manuals in multiple languages? I'm not saying all manuals should be in multiple languages, but I think there should be a mechanism for package writers to add manuals in multiple languages, if they think it useful. -- Peter Kleiweg

This is unfortunate as R CMD CHECK attempts to build the package, running any configure scripts that may be around thus failing on platforms that require configuration arguments to build properly.
