Hi OK, final stretch now, thank you to everyone who has helped! (hopefully) final question - what does R CMD build actually do that tar/gzip and WinZip do not? I have successfully used R CMD build to create a .tar.gz version of my package, which installs well and works under Linux - hurray! I naively thought that all I had to do now was create a .zip version (using something like WinZip) and

Hi I'm using R version 2.3.1 on Red Hat Enterprise Server 3. When I run a simple: plot(1:10,1:10) The plot comes out great, but the fonts are displayed wrongly: http://coxpress.sourceforge.net/test.jpg I realise this is probably not an R problem per se, but before I go messing about with my fonts, can someone tell me which fonts R (or X11) is trying to display, where they might be

Hi I am running an R script that creates 100s of graphs, and I need to use the greek CAPITAL letter delta in the mtext() function. I got as far as expression(delta) but this gives me the lowercase version. Can anyone help?

Following on from my previous mail! plot(1:10,1:10) mtext("title", side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) This works as expected and puts the font in italics. tag <- "A)" suffix <- "genea::" plot(1:10,1:10) mtext(bquote(.(tag) ~ Delta * .(suffix)), side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) Here, the font isn't in italics, it's normal. I presume this is some

Dear All: I encountered and apparently overcame problems following Yan and Rossini?s procedure for "Building Microsoft Windows Versions of R and R packages under Intel Linux" (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/cross-build.pdf): I have successfully cross-compiled R packages for Windows on a FreeBSD 4.10 i386 system. My revisions to Makefile-rcb (http://cran.r-

Hi First a simple question to do with plot(). How do I change the x-axis labels on a plot? For example, I am plotting each row of a matrix, and I want each row to be a line on my graph. Simple really. Eg: plot(sg[1,], type="l") When I do this, the x-axis is labelled 1:38, as I have 38 columns in my matrix. When I do: plot(sg[1,order(sg[1,])], type="l") Ideally I would

Hi Running R v2.0 on SuSe linux 8.2. I'm trying to build a package (which built perfectly on Windows...) on Linux, and I ran: R CMD check mypackage I got: * checking mypackage-maual.tex ... ERROR LaTeX errors when creating DVI version This typically indicates Rd problems OK, there are no problems with my Rd - I got 3 warnings but they were all expected, and the whole package builds find

Hi When I use plot(hclust(dist..)...)...) etc to create a dendrogram of a hierarchial cluster analysis, I end up with a vertical tree. What do I need to do to get a horizontal tree? Also, my users are used to seeing trees who's leaves all "end" at the same place (eg. Like in minitab). Is this possible in R? Thanks Mick Michael Watson Head of Informatics Institute for Animal

Hi I have recently installed and implemented Xvfb (X virtual frame buffer) so that I can create jpegs using R over CGI (SUSE Linux 8.1 and Apache 1.3). I have noticed that in order to do this, a file (Rplots.ps) is created in my cgi-bin directory everytime a cgi script is run. This could cause problems though as I have a multi-user system where it is possible that two different users will run

Hi I'm seeing some "odd" behaviour with cbind(). My code is: > cat <- read.table("cogs_category.txt", sep="\t", header=TRUE, quote=NULL, colClasses="character") > colnames(cat) [1] "Code" "Description" > is.factor(cat$Code) [1] FALSE > is.factor(cat$Description) [1] FALSE > is.factor(rainbow(nrow(cat))) [1]

Hi, my name is Paula. Im trying to learn how to build an R package in Windows XP using a simple example which includes a C source code. The foo.c file is located in mypkg/src/foo.c. I used the command Rcmd build --force --binary [pkgpath]. The problem is when I install the zip file in R the function foo doesn?t exist. The result a recieved during the building process is copied below. I really

Hello useRs I am trying to build a package for personal use and for making easier working with other people but I keep getting the same error message about the DESCRIPTION file not existing. when trying to install from a source tar.gz file: Error in .read_description(dfile) : file 'C:/Users/Propriétaire/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpHFMONb/R.INSTALL647a3535/mypkg/DESCRIPTION' does not

Jun hi again! Sorry for bothering. Although I had no problem with building Windows package under Linux, I noticed that man pages are not processed as they should or maybe I have a problem with my setup. My package is called 'GeneticsPed'. Instead of HTML or text files I just got a GeneticsPed.Rd.gz in man directory of a package (this is within GeneticsPed_0.1.zip file!). The file

Hi, I am getting an error when I am trying to build a library in R for windows . I am using R 2.7.0 in windows. I am following the instructions listed in the R Help for package creation. require(stats) ## two functions and two "data sets" : f <- function(x,y) x+y g <- function(x,y) x-y d <- data.frame(a=1, b=2) e <- rnorm(1000)

Hi I have a package which was built using R 1.9.1 and everything worked fine. I recently upgraded to R 2.0.1 and tried to re-install my package - and I got: Error in library(mypackage) : 'mypackage' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? So I tried rebuilding it using my new version of R: R CMD BUILD --binary mypackage hhc: not found cp: cannot stat `mypackage.chm': No

Hi Sorry to ask such a basic question. I have a list, each element of which is a vector of two values. What I actually want is a matrix with two columns, and one row per element of the list. Obviously I have tried as.matrix(), and as.vector() but I didn't expect the latter to work. I feel so lame asking this. Any suggestions? Mick
