Dear Deepayan and dear list, I notice a small inconsistency with the command completion of the R CMD check. --no-latex is deprecated sincs R 2.12.0 and defunct since 2.13.0 but the command line completion still suggests it: cb at cbdesktop:~/r-devel$ bin/R CMD check --no-<here I hit tab> --no-clean --no-examples --no-latex --no-vignettes --no-codoc --no-install

Hi, The rcompletion package, originally intended to provide completion for readline-based R interfaces, has undergone a number of changes. These changes are summarised below: o Reorganisation: - The package has been split into two. All the completion code has been moved to a pure R package called 'rcompgen'. 'rcompletion' now requires 'rcompgen' and

Hi - Not a mission critical issue, but still highly annoying. I just upgraded R to 2.10.0 (the binary for Ubuntu karmic) and the tab completion facility now inserts a space after every completed term (something it didn't do in 2.9.0 or 2.9.2). It wouldn't be an issue so much if it weren't for the fact that it screws up tab-completing the next term, i.e. if I have a list of lists of

Hi all, Trying to install R-1.7.1 on a RedHat 8.0 platform, I have a few problems. R gets installed without default packages (but base and ctest) : make script fails at the end of the procedure (configure is made successfully). This is the (translated) log I have : /gcc -I../../../../include /usr/include/mysql -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -mieee-fp -fPIC -g -O2 -c ansari.c -o ansari.o gcc: cannot

Hi, I've begun to use the lme4 package, rather than nlme, for more flexibility during modelling, and running the examples in lmer I receive this error message: ---<---------------cut here---------------start-------------->--- R> (fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject), sleepstudy)) Error in printMer(object) : no slot of name "status" for this object of class

Hi, R 2.5.0 isn't auto-completing paths properly as it used to. E.g. suppose I have: > dir("CEL/choe") [1] "chipC-rep1.CEL" "chipC-rep2.CEL" "chipC-rep3.CEL" "chipS-rep1.CEL" [5] "chipS-rep2.CEL" "chipS-rep3.CEL" Now if I do: ReadAffy("CEL/choe/ch<tab> # => ReadAffy("CEL/choe/chip

Dear friends, In configuring R 2.4.1 for Solaris 11, using SunStudio 11 compilers, I get the following error. checking readline/history.h usability... no checking readline/history.h presence... no checking for readline/history.h... no checking readline/readline.h usability... no checking readline/readline.h presence... no checking for readline/readline.h... no checking for rl_callback_read_char

We've recently "upgraded" a server to solaris 8, and in reinstalling R I've encountered a problem in getting it to recognize the readline library. I have installed readline in what I believe to be the "usual" place: /usr/local/lib with include files in /usr/local/include/readline. But ./configure produces: ragnar.econ.uiuc.edu# grep readline hout checking for

Dear community, I'm trying to install R-2.2.1 on an IRIX 6.2 (Unix System V Release 4) system without root access. Unfortunately readline is not installed in default, so I installed it locally in my home directory, more precisely in: $HOME/vol/readline-5.1, where $HOME is "/home3/fa/faga001". Afterwards I appended the path to the library with several $PATH variable, which now looks

Hi, I just edited this page: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/DarwinPorts I thought I''d post something to this mail-list in hopes of an answer.. I''m running Tiger.

Hi all, I just upgraded to R-1.8.0. Everything worked fine but command line editing does not work. This clearly indicates that readline has not been found in the compilation process. How could I explicitely indicate where to find it ? I use a Red Hat 8.0 system. I checked the FAQ which says readline-devel is also needed, but I have it already installed. Perhaps should I add the configure

Am trying to install 2.14.0 on a CentOS system. The configure script apparently can't find something to do with the readline library: Configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available Yes, I know I need readline 4.2 or later. "yum" assures me that rev 5.1 is already installed. And I know I need to provide configuration flags if it is in

Hi. Using Rterm v2.2.1 on WinXP, is there a way to interrupt a call like repeat { readline() } without killing the Command window? Ctrl+C is not interrupting the loop: R : Copyright 2006, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.2.1 Patched (2006-01-01 r36947) <snip></snip> > repeat { readline() } ^C ^C ^C ^C On Unix it works.

Hello! I'm trying to install R-1.9.1a with readline on Suse Linux.

Dear R users, I am trying to install R 1.7.1 on a sparc-sun-solaris2.8 system. although gnu readline is installed and works fine on the parent directory, R is not recognizing it.
