similar to: delay of warning for things in .Rprofile

Dear R-devel, I've noticed that when I place a `NEWS' file in the top-level directory for a package, then do R CMD build mypkg, the file gets included in the .tar.gz file. However, if I do R CMD build --binary mypkg, the `NEWS' file does not get included in the .zip file. Is this intentional? Is there a way I can get such a file included in the pre-compiled package automatically?

Dear R-Helpers, I'm fiddling with my .Rprofile in Windows XP & R 2.7.0 Beta. I prefer to manually save my workspace but automatically save my command history via the .Rprofile. That is working fine once I found that "utils::" was required before the loadhistory & savehistory functions. What I would like to do is add a separator line with a date between the histories of each

I am running R version 2.8.1 on Windows XP OS. When I launch R, I would like to automatically read a file containing my database connections, user ids, and passwords into my workspace. I tried including this in my Rprofile.site file: ... local({ old <- getOption("defaultPackages") options(defaultPackages = c(old, "Rcmdr","RODBC", "utils")) }) .First

Dear list members (esp. Duncan), I've run into the following curious problem with Version 2.2.0 alpha for Windows: Options in the Profile file in R's etc directory don't appear to be set. (I habitually uncomment options(chmhelp=TRUE), to no effect in this case.) As far as I can see, the only thing non-standard about my installation is that I put R 2.2.0 alpha under c:\R rather than

Hello, as I just spent a (too long) while searching for a way how to persistantly switch back the help display routines from chm to text, here a small documentation how to do that with the windows version of R. The windows installer asks which help type you want to use, I wanted to test the chm version -- which I didn't like. If you after installation want to switch back, you have to edit

What is the recommended way to change the default set of packages that are loaded at startup by R for Windows? I am writing vignettes for the Devore6 package which my introductory engineering statistics students will use and I would like to describe how the R environment can be changed so that this package is loaded by default. I understand from the R for Windows FAQ that one way would be to

Hi all, several packages print messages during loading. How do I avoid to see them when the packages are in the defaultPackages? Here is an example. With this in ~/.Rprofile ,----[ ~/.Rprofile ] | old <- getOption("defaultPackages") | options(defaultPackages = c(old, "filehash")) | rm(old) `---- I get as last line when starting R: ,---- | filehash: Simple key-value

Hi, I am a student studying Biostatistics at University. We have been advised to install R and R commander. I managed to do this successfully, except I wasn't able to complete the final step - which would enable both R and R commander to launch when I open the R icon on my desktop. However, I haven't been able to save it and for this to work. The last instructions we were given are:

Dear R-devel, Has anyone played with this? http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html <http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html> .

Also, check the settings of R_HOME and/or R_LIBS.

Dear R-devel, I recall that there used to be a mechanism to get around the requirement that all objects in a package have associated documentation; i.e., a way to specify a list of objects (mostly functions) that are not considered as part of the package API. Is this still available? I cannot find any mention in R-exts. I realize that the way to go is to have a name space, and eventually

[I believe few users manipulate formulae and model frames like this, so I'm posting here instead of R-help.] I just found out that model.frame() includes all terms, including those preceded by "-" in the formula, in its output (as mentioned on its help page). Is there a recommended way of excluding "negative" terms? My guess is that I can use info in the terms attribute

Hi, When starting an embedded R I encounter the following issue under certain conditions: ``` Error: package or namespace load failed for ?utils? in if (.identC(class1, class2) || .identC(class2, "ANY")) TRUE else {: missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed ``` (more such errors for grDevices, graphics, and stats) And in the end: ``` Warning messages: 1: package ?utils? in

Dear R-help, Can some one tell me what could be the problem? I downloaded the R-1.7.1 source and try to compile it on WinXP. "make", "make bitmapdll", "make tcl", "make recommended" all ran w/o problem. However, when I ran "make docs", it failed at creating refman.pdf, with no apparent error that I could see. I have attached the log file

Dear R-devel, A while ago Prof. Ripley had mentioned that g77 on AMD64 isn't the greatest, and the Salford Fortran is likely to be better. My question is, has anyone tried compiling R with Salford compilers (or other commercial compilers)? If so, do they offer performance advantages over GCC? TIA for any info.

Dear R-help, I've been compiling R from source on our Linux boxes for quite a while. One thing that bugs me is that I always get an error when make check-all where it choked up running tests/internet.R. That wasn't a big deal, as I can run install.packages()/update.packages() fine, and that's all I use the 'net connection for. The problem is that it takes a _long_ time to fail

Dear R-help, Has anyone notice the problem that, on Windows (NT and XP), when printing a graph using the "File -> Print..." menu in the graphics window to print the graph, that line width seemed to be ignored in the printed output? For example, if I make a plot with plot(1:10, type="l", lwd=5), it looks right on screen, but when printed out using the menu, it looks like

While installing software on a new computer, I thought I would try to use Cygwin to build an R package. (Note: NOT Ripley/Murdoch's Rtools). I uncovered and solved two issues, one of which appears to be identical to a problem previously reported (and unsolved) on this list. I offer this information in case it will be helpful. (1) Cygwin defaults to UNIX mode when installed, but it appears
