Dear R Developers, I was recently emailed by the CRAN maintainers about warnings for my two packages, analog and cocorresp, that are on CRAN. I have built both packages (the versions on CRAN plus

Under v1.6.2, Windows NT4 OS, when a function contains an execution error and I have placed browser() in inside the function body, the call to browser is ignored. A brief example to illustrate: > foo <- function(x) { + y <- x ^ 2 + browser() + foo2(x) ## Intentional error + x ^ 3 + } > > foo(30) Called from: foo(30) Browse[1]> Error in foo(30) : couldn't find

We are now starting testing R 2.13.0/alpba/beta/RC and testing and feedback would be appreciated (whereas reports on problems immediately after release will try our patience). Sources are available at http://cran.r-project.org/src/base-prerelease/ Windows binaries at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rtest.html and Mac binaries at http://r.research.att.com/, specifically

Hi there. as a newbie I figured out the basics of R but when it came to graphic output it was a bad surprise. All but the X11 device do not function properly. Most of them generate an empty file and pdf() produces non valid output (gs and acroread as well). Very annoying, because I have to write a report. I got the recent stable binary rpm (v1.6.2) from CRAN on a SuSE Linux 8.1. Any help? CU

Full_Name: Henrik Bengtsson Version: R v1.7.1 OS: WinXP Pro Submission from: (NULL) (130.235.2.229) bringToTop() does not work if some windows has been closed. Example: graphics.off() x11() # opens Figure 2 x11() # opens Figure 3 dev.set(2) dev.off() # closes Figure 2 bringToTop(3) # Gives an error # Error in bringToTop(as.integer(which)) : invalid value of `which'

Hi, with R v1.7.1 (=I don't recall I saw it before) I noticed that R CMD INSTALL sometimes generates nonsense information, e.g. "Bundle: NA", even if there was a correct DESCRIPTION file too. I turns out that it happens when a DESCRIPTION.in has empty lines at the end. I have observed this behavior on both Sun Solaris 9 and Windows XP Pro (but here I am using unsupported Cygwin w/

I'm running an AsteriskNow V1.7.1 with both a PSTN connection and fax machine. Both are connected to a DAHDI board. I'd like to route incoming PSTN fax calls to the extension of the fax machine and process non-fax calls through different dialplan.logic. What's the best way to go about doing this? I've looked into Fax for Asterisk, bit I'm not sure that I want it or NVFax

Full_Name: Henrik Bengtsson Version: R v1.7.1 OS: WinXP Pro, Solaris 9 Submission from: (NULL) (130.235.2.229) A colleague of mine who is new to R had problems setting up his .Rprofile and we tracked it down to the following. On both WinXP and Solaris with Rv1.7.1 we noticed that the *last* line in .Rprofile has to have a *newline* to be evaluated. For instance, starting R with the following

This is something Timo hacked up for me a few years ago and I realised should be on the list in case anyone else wants them. The following patches will limit maildir folders to 4000 messages on Dovecot 2.0.* and 2.1.* The Specfile patch is against the Cityfan Redhat EL5 SRPM but is likely to work on most build platforms Changing the message limit requires a recompile. It's brutal and

Hi all Apologies for any cross posting. I have encountered a rather bizarre "problem" in Splus and R. I am using Age-Period-Cohort models to model cervical cancer and have run the same data on both R (v.1.4.1 & v1.6.2) and Splus (version 6.0). I used the same command line in both Splus and R: glm(cases~-1+as.factor(age)

I have both the CRAN binary and my own compiled version of R v1.7.1 on the same machine (Dell Pentium III 800 MHz running NT 4) Using the example provided earlier: > phi <- 1.6180339887498949 > a <- floor(runif(750000)*1000) > system.time(b <- (phi^a - (-phi)^(-a))/sqrt(5))[3] I get 10.99 secs on the CRAN binary and 2.09 secs on my own compiled version. I hope this helps

First of all, I haven't followed the discussion about the new/upcoming name space support in R so I do not know the purposes or requirements for it, neither its design, and I can only guess. I found the (initial?) notes by Luke Tierney on the Developers Page. Are there any other references? Since it seems that the current implementation (R v1.6.2) of name spaces is a "trial" version

I have windows version of R v1.6.2 I have downloaded the qtoolbox.zip from http://www.cmis.csiro.au/S-PLUS/qtoolbox/ My R command line is > install.packages("C:/Program Files/R/qtoolbox.zip", .libPaths()[1], CRAN = NULL) and I get the following error message: updating HTML package descriptions Warning message: error -1 in extracting from zip file > Is there another way to

Dear developeRs, Compilation of the latest version (0.9-5) of my actuar package fails with r-release MacOS_X ix86 on CRAN; see http://www.R-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-macosx-ix86/actuar-00check.html All errors come from accented letters in comments in latin-1 encoded files (except hierarc.R which is in UTF-8, my bad). Encoding is declared as latin-1 in DESCRIPTION. The package

I'm having an odd problem with strsplit (well I think it's strplit that's causing the problem). When I run the code below as follows: str(parseFormulaMin(y +x +d ~ b +d +e| a * b)) I expect to get List of 3 $ y: chr "y+x+d" $ x: chr "b+d+e" $ g: chr "a*b" But about half the time I get List of 3 $ y: chr "y+x+d" $ x: chr

Hi, I am trying to use "read.pnm" from the package "pixmap" to read more than 10 thousand image files in "mydir". > file.list <- dir( "mydir", full=T) > for( i in 1:length(file.list) ) { print(i) x <- read.pnm(file.list[i]) } In the beginning it was fine. But after reading 1020 images or so, the read.pnm function seems to crash on
