suggestion for addition to R-lang.texi
Small suggestion for the documentation:
Should the = operator for assignments, described on
http://developer.r-project.org/equalAssign.html, now be included in
the operator table in doc/manual/R-lang.texi? If so, one possibility
could be after lines 1096/7:
@item @code{<-}
@tab Left assignment, binary
@item @code{=}
@tab Left assignment, binary
Also, where is the best place to send

Suggested changes to R-lang.texi and R-exts.texi
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

Another typo in R-exts.texi
R Core,
Here is another minor typo which I had spotted three days ago and sent to
Brian, but have not heard back nor seen it incorporated. Doubly trivial as in
a comment but a dual typo nevertheless. Would be nice if someone could fold
this in. I still have the same diff here for the current r87707.
Cheers, Dirk

Best way to determine if you're running 32 or 64 bit R on windows
Hi,
Is this sufficient?
if (.Machine$sizeof.pointer==4){
cat('32\n')
} else {
cat('64\n')
}
Or is it better to test something in R.version, say os?
I'd like to use this to specify appropriate linker arguments when
building the RMySQL windows package.

R-exts.texi in SVN version 36380
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:

Should this PDF render correctly without font embedding?
A professor here at Vanderbilt sent me the following code. Each of the
text strings should right justify against the center vertical bar, but
because of font issues it doesn't. I understand that there are
workarounds, but I was just curious if this was consistent across all
platforms. On linux with R 2.7.1 and R-trunk (r46103), both acrobat
reader 8 and kpdf render it incorrectly. How

Possible bug in Rcons_vprintf
In R-2-4-branch r39548, Rcons_vprintf is called from stdout_vfprintf
when R_Outputfile is NULL. When called and output is greater than
R_BUFSIZE, output is truncated to R_BUFSIZE. Here's a one-line fix:

Struggling with S3/S4 interface issues and External Pointers
I'm currently working on embedding R into the Apache2 webserver (with
some positive results...), but I'm struggling to identify the best way
to expose the apache data and functions to R.
A couple of thoughts:
In light of the recent discussion on "S3/S4 classes performance
comparson", I'm leaning toward implementing the interface with S3 style
classes. I appreciate

Possible R graphics devices
Hello all,
I've been working on a new R Graphics device that targets Adobe's
Shockwave Flash format (SWF for short). It uses http://www.libming.org/
on the backend. Here are some example outputs so far:

Once you click on the above, choose a directory like 'smooth' and then
click on test.html to see a side-by-side comparison of the swf

Subtle bug in do_basename
Hello,
I've been wondering why my no-optimization R-devel builds have been
hanging during "building/updating package indices ...". I tracked it
down with gdb to this line from do_basename in utils.c:
while ( *(p = buf + strlen(buf) - 1) == fsp ) *p = '\0';
Now, imagine if your compiler places the variable fsp immediately before
buf on the stack, and strlen(buf) is 0.

R graphics device for flash apps
Byron,
I just read your blog (statcomp.blogspot.com, linked from your other
post) and rand across your idea of an R/Flash graphics device. I've also
been giving this some thought because of this amazing interactive flash app:
http://tools.google.com/gapminder
and others from http://www.gapminder.org/.
I would love more than anything to work on this. The only hitch is that

Adding difftime objects to POSIXt objects
Hello,
?DateTimeClasses states that "one can add or subtract a number of
seconds or a 'difftime' object from a date-time object, but not add two
date-time objects."
So, is the below expected behavior?
> x <- Sys.time()
> x
[1] "2007-02-21 16:19:56 CST"
> x + as.difftime("1","%H")

Missing parenthesis in 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.

Overriding InitTempDir
For embedded projects, one may want to eliminate the per-session temp
directory created by InitTempDir() and just use a system-specific temp
directory. Here's my solution:
extern char *R_TempDir;
void my_InitTempDir()
{
char *tmp;
if (R_TempDir){
if (rmdir(R_TempDir) != 0){
perror("Fatal Error: could not remove R's TempDir!");

typo in R-ints.texi's description of P_ macro
I think there are some missing words in "R Internals"'s description of
the P_ macro.
It currently has "A macro as a wrapper for ngettext", which I think
ought to be
something like "The macro P_ may be used as a wrapper for ngettext".
The following patch also makes the 2 alternate definitions of P_ have
the same argument names,
StringS and StringP. Expanding the
