This is of course an incorrect usage, which I've trapped at R level, so as to give an informative warning.

Hi all! To add to my previous posting I want to give some more deatils give a more precise I want to print a hyphen to a pdf() or postscript() device. As the documentaion of postscript says ASCII Character 45("-") is mapped to a minus sign (ASCII Character 95) by default. The advice given is to use "\173" for a hyphen. But, the following code produces a curly brace instead

Dear all Can anyone point to a list of valid pdf.options() encodings? I checked ?pdf and ?postscript, but they do not quite answer my questions. I would like to try UTF-8 instead of the default "ISOLatin1.enc" for Sweave plots (I have issues with Greek characters in labels). Thank you Liviu -- Do you know how to read? http://www.alienetworks.com/srtest.cfm Do you know how to write?

Hallo, I would like to ask you, for one question. When I export graph to .pdf and I need some czech font, I use a parameter encoding="ISOLatin2.enc" for these special fonts. But exported text is bad. I try ISOLatin1 and MacRoman, but it is some one. I don't know, what Iam doing bad, because in quartz is the graph ok. Sorry....I forget....I have a Mac with Leopard and R ver. 2.6.1.

Dear R wizards: I believe some more font encoding info. some of the font encodings work, others do not: IsoLatin1, MacRoman, WinAnsi, and PDFDoc seem fine. AdobeStd, AdobeSym, ISOLatin2, ISOLatin9, and TeXtext seem broken, in that the resulting output file is silently corrupt. The font encoding error does not appear in the postscript device driver, and it works fine. It would be nice if

Hello, Can anybody tell me how stream titles, which are non-ASCII, are sent? For example, at ShoutCast.com, there are Asian and European streams that send encoded strings. However, I can't see how to detect what type of encoding they are using. e.g. UTF8, ISOLatin1, etc. If I could work out the encoding, then I can display the names properly. Any differences between how IceCast and

Not sure whether this is a feature or bug -- but it does not appear to be documented. R1.6.1 on Windows NT 4.00.1381 Objects assigned in the Rprofile.site file (e.g. foo<-'something') are put into package:base not .GlobalEnv on startup. Objects assigned in the .Rprofile file are put into .GlobalEnv. This doesn't seem consistent to me. The objects exist in base only for the

Hello, I posted 2 weeks ago this problem and it is currently not working. First thanks a lot for all the hints and helps. In the attached file I have added (hopefully) all informations. To summarize: I want to setup a print server, which allows the user to download the necessary files for new printers. Installed are (on top of suse 7.1) samba 2.2.6_pre2 and cups 1.1.15_1. Installed the printers,

I have a little problem, I cannot solve (at least reasonable fast) I use gnu-emacs 21.2.1 with r-1.5.1 on windows 95. In recent versions I changed "process-coding-system-alist" (C-x[REt]p) to "latin-1". Then I was able to plot german "????" etc(rgui does make this correct). With the new R version this does not work any more. I tried to use some other codings systems

Hello, Is file("out.txt", open="wt", encoding=ISOLatin1) (resp: MacRoman, WinAnsi) broken/unimplemented ?

I would appreciate some advice on what the preferred contents of RProfile.site vs. .Rprofile should be. A .First() function can reside in either one, but is it preferred to place it in .Rprofile? I currently use .First() in .Rprofile files placed in separate directories used for different RStudio projects. Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi. Assume I have one ~/.Rprofile (in my home directory) and one ./.Rprofile (in my current working directory). In this case, the latter will have higher priority and will be the script that R uses during the startup process. Is there a *generic* way to programmatically from within ./.Rprofile and ~/.Rprofile to tell what their absolute pathnames are or equivalently what directories they are

Hi, After updating to R 2.7, my .Rprofile executes twice on startup. I confirmed this by putting in the following line: print("starting .Rprofile...") When I start R, I see: [1] "starting .Rprofile..." [1] "starting .Rprofile..." This seems like the obverse of the following FAQ:

Hi everyone. I have recently installed R 2.14.1 on my 64-bit Windows 7 laptop. I am attempting to include some favourite functions in the Rprofile.site file to run at R start-up as I did with my previous 32-bit XP machine. I have edited the Rprofile.site file in "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.14.1\etc\" but the added code doesn't seem to be executed when I run R, whether through Tinn-R

Hello, I'm having some difficulty understanding the documentation relative to the startup files with R-Aqua 2.0.1 for Mac OS X. Specifically, I'm wondering: where does R search for the startup files (my home directory at Users:<me>:?); how should they be named (.RProfile will be treated by Mac OS X as a system file and be hidden, so I'm wondering if it should just be

Hi all, After a short hiatus away from R I have found that it's changed a bit. I used to keep a definition of .First in .Rprofile that did a couple of things on startup (load a couple of libraries). Now, I've discovered that when I change the definition of .First in .Rprofile it doesn't change anything when I start up, because .First is held over in .Rdata from the last session.
