similar to: Small modification of zip.file.extract in utils?

Hi, One of the functions I use needs to write to a temporary file, in the directory given by tempdir(). I want to change this from the standard one, as the file is too large for the drive. However, tempfile() doesnt seem to respect the environment variables when I change them with Sys.setenv(). In a fresh R-session: > Sys.getenv("TMP") [1]

I received several answer to my querry re reading zipped files, R.Gentleman, Liaw Andy, BD Ripley,J Holtman, A.Matt, and others, sorry if I missed your names. a- use pipe to run external unzip to a file and read from there b- use gzfile() to open directly a gzipped file c- use zip.file.extract() solution b works like a charm, unfortunately it open gzipped files and not zipped files, would it be

I was hoping that someone could try to reproduce an error that I am getting. The R Site Search keeps timing out on me, so apologies of this has already come up. I'm using > R.version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32

I have a zip file. It is over 2Gb in size: -rw-r--r-- 1 sweh sweh 2383956582 Mar 13 13:44 test.zip The standard "unzip" program barfs: % unzip -l test.zip Archive: test.zip End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment

Dear all I can not understand how to install the package lpsolve_1.1.9.zip I have read the FAQ and the help pages carefully, but it still not clear for me. I have tried the following (and obtained the respective error messages): >install.packages("c:/ProgramFiles/R/rw2011/library/lpSolve_1.1.9",destdir=" c:/ProgramFiles/R/rw2011/library/lpSolve") Mensagem de aviso:

Hello, when trying to write an R-file, which automatically installs and updates a given list of packages, I had two problems with install.packages() 1) install.packages("<package>") will install <package>, no matter if <package> has already been installed. 2) the readline() at the end of install.packages, which asks the user, if the downloaded files should be

I''m poring through the Dragonfly source code right now, trying to get a handle on how to apply the following technique there: Client uploads a Zip archive containing N images, PDF files, text files, etc. When that file arrives at the server, but before it is stored as an attachment to the current object, the Zip is burst open, contents are iterated over, and each contained file is saved

Hello R-help! I just wanted to share a tip might help others of us stuck on R. The documentation for zip.file.extract is rather scant, and a few examples would. When using zip.file.extract, the first argument should be the full (or relative) path and the second the name of the zip file, it seems. While this is counterintuitive to me, that it should get the part from the first argument,

I am using tools::compactPDF for reducing the size of some pdf-files with GhostScript. I had some trouble in the beginning as the documentation seems not to match the usage of the function. For GhostScript, one has to set the argument gs_cmd, which has the following description: gs_cmd - Character string giving the path to the GhostScript executable, if that is to be used. On Windows this is

O/S: Linux R version : 2.2.1 The R server doesn't have http internet access. And the sys admins will not install the R libraries that I requested. So I have downloaded the packages that I want to intall and have moved them into my home directory on the server. These are a series of *.tar.gz files. I want to install the R libraries in my home directory, but I can't get it to work.

I first answered to the email below in r-help, but as I did not see any response, and it looks like a bug/unwanted behavior, I am also posting here. I have observed this in RGui, whereas it seems not to happen in RStudio. Similar to OP, I sometimes have a problem with functions using the progress bar. Frequently, the console is cleared after x iterations when the progress bar is called in a

Thanks a lot for your answer Jeroen! I should have mentioned that I had actually only checked with the win-builder, as I did not have R-devel installed on my computer. But based on your answer I installed R-devel locally on a Linux-server (Redhat), and the package could be checked without the NOTE. So you might be right that this is a windows issue. However, another package that I am maintaining

Dear people, Yesterday I looked at the recode command in the memisc package and ran the following example stated in the manual: x <- as.item(sample(1:6,20,replace=TRUE), labels=c( a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4, e=5, f=6)) print(x) f <- as.factor(x) f recode(f,

Hello, I'm using memisc to output regression results to tables and latex. My problem is that the output that Latex needs must be in between $ $ so that it is read as formula but memisc does not output the result between $ $. For example, latex needs: $0.05^{***}$ and memisc outputs 0.05^{***} in an entry. I am new to Latex and I imagine it could also be a latex 'problem' and not

Hi, I want to automatically fit variograms to a large number of different sample data sets, and call the funtion "likfit" (in package geoR) from within a for-loop. "likfit" does again call "optim". After ssuccessfully fitting variograms to some of the data sets, the procedure crashes and I get the error message: Error in optim(par = ini, fn = negloglik.GRF,

All, I am new to using R and know some basics. I wish to use kriging in R to do the following: given data Y =f(X1,X2,X3,.....,Xn) --1000+ irregular measured data set. I would like to be able to get a single value y given sinle input set (x1,x2,x3,...xn) A google search on this takes me lierally to the same example on involving analysis with soil sampling and I cannot figure out how to

Dear All, I am trying to recode a variable using the functions provided by "memisc" package. Actually I am following the examples on page 9-10 of the vignette: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- d.fig <- within(d.fig,{ sev <- recode(sev, 1 -> 0.9, 2 -> 1.0, 3 -> 1.1, 4 ->

Hi, I have loaded the packages car, memisc, Hmisc and all of these implement the function recode. The order in which the packages are loaded depends on the order I execute my scripts and thus is not always the same and the syntax of the recode function changes with the package. Is there any way to call specificly the memisc recode function? Or maybe it's better to detach all packages first
