I am investigating how well R/tcltk is supported on different system and I ran into the same problem as Christian Schulz reported on February 7, 2002. I am using [R] v1.4.1 on WinMe and ActiveTcl 8.3.2. Loading tcltk within Rgui works just fine and both demo(tkdensity) and demo(tkttest) works as expected. However, when I start R from my Cygwin terminal dyn.load() fails to load the library: % R

So, I installed tcl/tk from this page: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/ It gets placed in /usr/local dir. and then I installed R. Next, in R, I set the TCL_LIBRARY variable by saying Sys.setenv(TCL_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/tcl8.5") and Sys.setenv(TK_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/tk8.5") But

Hello; Well, I'm afraid this is the second related problem I report in two days (I'm sorry for this) I've programmed a tcltk interface for a model and it includes a comboBox.

Hi, I've been trying to install R on Red Hat Linux 9 for some potential users of my R/TclTk application. I tried using the rpm for R 1.7.1 for Red Hat Linux 9. It told me that I needed: libtcl8.3.so so I looked for a binary release of Tcl 8.3.x on http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.3.html but found that the link to the Tcl 8.3.x binaries pointed to ActiveTcl 8.4.x . I couldn't see

I upgraded to R Gui 1.6 this morning and I can't seem to get it to accept my new startup directory. R 1.51 will accept "F:\_ben\bls\gen1\results\bls\analysis" as the start in directory for the R Gui shortcut, but R 1.6 will not. R 1.6 will accept "F:\_ben\bls\gen1\results\bls". It seems to have trouble when I add "\analysis." R still loads fine but I get the

Dears users, Thanks for your responses concerning my question of yesterday (about stand-alone package). Il would like to explore two ways: -- Tcltk extension, -- Rweb application.
