similar to: Internationalization of the Rcmdr package

Dear list members, I and my students have encountered an intermittent problem using the Rcmdr package (version 0.9-0) under Windows (with the SDI). The problem occurs both in versions 1.7.1 and 1.8.0 of R. The problem seems to occur only in the following context: The "Edit data set" button is pressed in the Rcmdr GUI. This executes the fix() function on the active data frame,

Dear R-devel list members: I have two internationalization questions, related to questions that I posed previously. These pertain to Windows (I've tried under Win XP but assume the issue is more general) and R 2.1.1 patched and 2.2.0 devel. (1) I've noticed that the standard Windows dialogs in R -- whether initiated from the Rgui menus, from winDialog(), or from tcltk functions such as

Dear R-devel list members, I'm considering adding support for other languages than English to the Rcmdr package. I understand that the use of Tcl/Tk by the Rcmdr package means I won't be able to make full use of the internationalization facilities in R 2.1.0. I'm interested, therefore, in whether the following, more limited, strategy (which bears some similarity to the

Dear R-packages list members, I've recently uploaded to CRAN version 1.1-1 of the Rcmdr ("R Commander") package. Based on the tcltk package, the Rcmdr provides a basic-statistics graphical interface to R. The general functionality of the R Commander has not changed much since version 1.0-0. There are some small improvements to the package, but the reason that I'm re-announcing

Dear list members, I’m trying to install R Commander under Mac OSX Mountain Lion (10.8.2). After following all the steps described in the installation notes (http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/installation-notes.html), I got this error message: ===== Loading required package: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done Loading required package: car Loading required package: MASS

Dear R-announce list members, I've uploaded to CRAN a new version of my Rcmdr package, which provides a cross-platform basic-statistics GUI for R. This version has a few new features, but mostly addresses some problems that arose with the original version. The relevant portion of the CHANGES file for the package is appended. As before, suggestions and reports of problems are appreciated.

Dear Andy and Peter, My apologies for chiming in so late, but I was out of town and just caught up with R-help today (and an impressive amount of material accumulates on R-help in a couple of weeks!). Although I develop the Rcmdr package on a Windows system, I test it under Linux as well -- most recently on Ubuntu 7.04 with R 2.5.0. Curiously, the windows for Rcmdr 1.3-5 look normal to me, as I

Dear R-announce list members, I've submitted a new package to CRAN, Rcmdr, which provides a cross-platform basic-statistics GUI for R. Rcmdr is based on the tcltk package and uses only standard Tk widgets. It therefore runs under Windows if Tcl/Tk support is installed with R, although it requires the single-document interface (SDI). I've tested Rcmdr with Windows and Red Hat Linux;

Dear list members, I've attached some email correspondence with Jaro Lajovic (with his permission), detailing a problem with the Slovenian translation file for the Rcmdr package. In brief, while certain UTF-8 characters used in Slovenian used to appear properly in older versions of R, some characters do not display properly in the Rcmdr menus and output window under R 2.7.x. I've
