similar to: R-exts.texi: nuke-trailing-whitespace has changed name (PR#7888)

I haven't been able to connect to http://bugs.r-project.org the last few days. Is there a problem with the site (or am I having a problem :-) ? -- Bj??rn-Helge Mevik

As of R 1.7.0, princomp no longer accept matrices with more coloumns than rows. I'm curious: Why was this decision made? I work a lot with data where more coloumns than rows is more of a rule than an exception (for instance spectroscopic data). To me, princomp have two advantages above prcomp: 1) It has a predict method, and 2) it has a biplot method. A biplot method shouldn't be too

Dear all, I would like to suggest the following changes to the R documentation: 1) R-exts.texi: Having had my first experience with uploading a package to ftp://cran.R-project.org/incoming/, I think it would be nice if the documentation pointed out that one should use ftp and not sftp (at least on my machine sftp failed to make a connection) and that one should log in as user

G'day all, after issuing `svn up' on my machine this morning, I noticed that `make info' choked on R-exts.texi. Below is a patch that seems to solve the problem. BTW, while `make info' runs now, I still get the following warning: /usr/bin/makeinfo --enable-encoding -D UseExternalXrefs -I/opt/src/R-devel-src/doc/manual /opt/src/R-devel-src/doc/manual/R-exts.texi

Line 1204 (right now) of svn/r-devel/doc/manual/R-exts.texi has dest <- file.path(R_PACKAGE_DIR, paste0('bin', R_ARCH) which lacks a closing ) -- two open, only one close right now. Dirk [1] I would have reported a bug, but I am aware of a recent and not-so-friendly response when bugzilla was used to report a typo. -- http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | edd at

The R-exts manual still says Note also that for running @LaTeX{}, the Debian @acronym{GNU}/Linux @acronym{CRAN} check systems use the Debian TeXLive at footnote{currently the long obsolete TeXLive 2009.} distribution (@uref{http://packages.debian.org/@/en/@/sid/@/texlive}); the Fedora and and what is in the footnote has not been true for quite some time as a visit to the URL (or to the

I recently wrote a vignette, with the following at the top of the .Rnw file: %%\VignetteIndexEntry{How to use look up tables for h() functions} %%\VignetteDepends{sjedmin, spatstat} Using vExplorer() on this function, I got an error from this part of getVigInfo(): lines <- grep("^%[[:space:]]*\\\\Vignette", file) if (length(lines) == 0) stop("File ", vig,

I'm writing a couple of related functions, and I'd like to generate a (single) .R file (containing the function definitions), and separate .Rd files (documenting each function). Would this be possible with Sweave/noewb? Has anyone tried something along this idea? -- Regards, Bj?rn-Helge Mevik

Attached is a patch for R-exts.texi against r72880.

I'd rather not have CVS commit scripts mucking with the code. If you want to have the nightly tester whine about source code with spaces at the end of lines (like it whines about

Hallo! Trying to configure Xemacs to work with .snw files on windows 2000. Tried to do it how it is described in the FAQ for Sweaves. When starting xemacs with and Snw file *ESS* buffer contains hundrets of lines and the few last ones. (ess-loop-timeout . 500000) (inferior-ess-primary-prompt . ^) (inferior-ess-secondary-prompt . ^) (comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields . t)

I can't get Emacs to automatically do syntax highlighting of Sweave files. I have followed Friedrich's suggestion for code to insert into my .emacs file. The complete section from my .emacs file is given below. When I load a *.Snw file, font is white until I press M-x, then the first code and document chunks get highlighted, but not the rest of the file. Latex and Noweb menus are

Dear list, I have tried to setup my Xemacs for use with Sweave, which I indend to learn. I have followed the instructions in the Sweave FAQ, that is to say, I put (defun Rnw-mode () (require 'ess-noweb) (noweb-mode) (if (fboundp 'R-mode) (setq noweb-default-code-mode 'R-mode))) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode)) (add-to-list

http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-ints.html#R-coding-standards gives detailed advice on how to set the indentation level for C code to 4, but it took me a bit of poking around in the archives to find the (setq ess-indent-level 4) incantation for getting the R indentation right as well. It would have been helpful to have it in the R-ints manual section as well ... thanks Ben

I use the recommendations in "R coding standards", i.e., I put ;;; C (add-hook 'c-mode-hook (lambda () (c-set-style "bsd"))) ;;; ESS (add-hook 'ess-mode-hook (lambda () (ess-set-style 'C++ 'quiet) (add-hook 'local-write-file-hooks (lambda

Greetings. I'm trying to recreate in R some regression models I've done in SAS, but I'm not getting the same results. My advisor suspects this may be due to differences in precision between R and SAS. Does anyone know where I can find specifications for R's type double? (It doesn't seem to be in the R Language Definition.) Thanks in advance for any help anyone can

Dear List, I am trying to become more familiar with Sweave at the moment, beacuse I am convinced that it will eventually make my life easier. However, I have not found anything relevant in the mail archives about the following problem. Both the article in R-News and the Sweave FAQ suggest that Emacs would be a great development environment for working with Sweave. So far, it doesn't seem to

Dear R users, I downloaded an ess-5.2.2 package and hope to use emacs as front to work with R. I modified ~/.emacs and start R by M-x R. But I found when I quited the R session, it still asked me to save the work space or not. I added inferior-R-args with "--save" args. But it seemed that it had no effect. Can you tell me how to pass the arguments other than --no-readline to
