similar to: [R-gui] R GUI considerations (was: R, Wine, and multi-threadedness)

Hello, Following a discussion initiated on r-devel, that mentions SciViews-R and other GUIs issues for R, I would like to make comments (and would be happy if these comments would initiate interesting initiatives). A big, big problem with SciViews-R is that a part of it is written in Visual Basic 6, a M$$$$ language, not supported any more, buggy, non transposable to other platforms, etc,

Greetings, I am curious, I see quite a few references to using TextMate for rails development. I downloaded TextMate and used it for 30 days. I do not see what everyone is raving about. Snipplets are nice, but other editors do the same thing, some with much more power. Can anyone tell me what makes people draw to TextMate? Maybe I am missing the whole reason, I''d really like to

Hi - any person interested in building a binding between Smalltalk and R, please contact myself or Hernan. This could be done as the Google Summer of Code (GSoC). http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2012 http://gsoc2012.esug.org/projects/r-statistics For those who don't know Smalltalk it is an Object Oriented language that was created back in the '80s in the Xerox

Hi, I'm experimenting with using LLVM to generate dynamic FFI bridges in VisualWorks Smalltalk. LLVM is an amazing thing! I'm going from dynamically generated assembler source to machine code, and I have that all working, copied from the llc tool and the JIT example. I have two questions: 1. What optimization passes, if any, should I run on the module before I pass it to the

Back in the horse-and-buggy days when I was cutting my OO eye teeth on Smalltalk, we had a LOT of conversations about the biggest problem dealing with a large and growing set of classes and methods in the Smalltalk image. It became clear that most, if not all, successful Smalltalk coders spent a lot of their time code-shopping, i.e., looking for a class or method that did something they

I posted this to comp.lang.ruby and comp.lang.smalltalk, and my blog. I will likely get destroyed, but it will be worth it if at least one nugget of information helps the Ruby IDE makers. ----------------------------------------- Hi all -- I shout my question to the entire Ruby + Smalltalk community: Smalltalk has had amazing IDEs for decades, why not Ruby? Smalltalkers, Ruby needs your help!

The Money and Reserves Analysis section in the Division of Monetary Affairs at the Federal Reserve Board in Washington has an opening for an Information Systems Analyst (ISA). The job listing can be found here: http://careers.peopleclick.com/jobposts/Client40_FRBOG/BU1/External/281-813.htm This is not really a statistics position, although it does involve SAS (and possibly R, see below)

Hello. This is my first post to the list, so first I'd like to thank everybody for making and mantaining such a great product as R. I'm writting a native binding to R from Dolphin Smalltalk. I've followed up the examples of the documentation showing how to run R embedded, and I got it partially working. However, I have a problem with the reference handling of the R objects.

I'm setting up a Linux box to run R.? I ususally run in a Windows envrionment but after reading the docs I'm not sure what to expect in terms of the front end appearance in Linux.? Does it resemble Windows or will I need Rkward or R Commander?

Hi Everyone, I am uncertain that I am writing the contrast statements correctly. Basically, I'm unsure when to use a -1 and a 1 when writing the contrasts. Specifically I am interested in comparing the slopes between different temperature regimes. Temperature is therefore a factor. Time and percent are numerical. Using the gmodels package I made the following model:

Hi, This is to share my experience of using GUI's for using various Quality Management/Assurance tools. A few days back, I had I had written a mail about Box plots and received some very good suggestions, including that for simple scripts. Thanks everybody for the same. Based on the suggestions, I am trying three GUI's: R Commander, JGR-Deducer combination and RKward. For Box Plots, I

Hi, I am a consultant in Quality Management. I am exploring the use of R with any GUI - R commander/Rkward for doing analytical work. Have installed R, R Commander and Rkward. I hope to learn by doing various exercises that I use for teaching analytical techniques to my clients. I would be posting the data on this mailing list, and the rkward mailing list wherever I get stuck. First such

I need arguments pro-S-PLUS and against SAS for a meeting I will have next week. S-Plus is (90 - 99)% compatible with R, so using S-Plus will make things much easier for everyone. But I can't use this argument. What other arguments could I use? Alberto Monteiro

Hi, I managed to install Win32 R 2.2.0 with the CRAN Innosetup installer under Wine on x86 linux a few days ago. However, on trying to run it, MSVCP60.DLL is missing. So here is a sort of a bug report, and a couple of questions: (1) I think the R binary in the CRAN Innosetup installer was built with mingw. The R-windows FAQ did mention that this DLL is required *for Chinese/Japanese/Korean*
