Hi, When I reply to a post, it generally appears as a separate thread, rather than branching off the original post. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Noting I am currently receiving a couple of the lists in digest form. kind regards -- Charlotte Maia http://sites.google.com/site/maiagx/home

Dear all, When I use the cacheSweave package together with the Sweave option keep.source = TRUE, all the LaTeX code before the Sweave code chunk is included in the TeX file to be compiled. For example, with the following Sweave file \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[nogin]{Sweave} % Sweave options \SweaveOpts{keep.source=TRUE, strip.white=TRUE, eps=FALSE, pdf=TRUE} \begin{document}

Hi everyone, I could have posted this on R-devel or the GUI list, however don't feel it's that serious. Hence, decided R-help would be the most appropriate. I'm not so much interested in which is the best user interface for R. Rather which is the best ***platform*** for developing ***new*** user interfaces for R. Noting I'm using the term user interface is a very general sense.

Hi This is for developers of extension packages that provide extra *graphics devices* for R. In the *development* version of R, support has been added to the graphics engine for sending raster images (bitmaps) to a graphics device. This consists mainly of two new device functions: dev_Raster() and dev_Cap(). The R_GE_version constant (in GraphicsEngine.h) has been bumped up to 6 as a

Dear friends, I have several sets of points in a transformed environmental space. Each set of points can be represented as a cloud in the environmental space. This space is spanned by n coordinates, corresponding to the first n PCs of 36 PCs of some environmental variables (12 monthly minimum temperatures, 12 monthly maximum temperature, 12 monthly precipitations). I would like to calculate

Hi I was wondering if a task view for marketing would be a good idea???? I realise that it would have some overlap with other task views. Social science, cluster and multivariate are the most obvious ones. There seem to be a lot of packages (quite in your face, if I may say so) for finance and econometrics (however this is a good thing, mostly...). However, marketing focused packages seem to be

Dear list. I am preparing a R package, and the last step is to write a package vignette using Sweave. However, I am experiencing some trouble when trying to include plots in my Sweave document. That is, in my package I have made some plotting functions in which I start by calling 'new.dev()' to start a graphics device of a certain width and height, and then proceed with plot(). These

Hello Folks, When I run the document below through sweave, rgui.exe/rsession.exe leaves a file handle open to the sweave-001.pdf graphic (as verified by process explorer). Pdflatex.exe then crashes (with a Permission Denied error) because the graphic file is locked. This only seems to happen when there is an error in the sweave document. When there are no errors, no file handles are left open.

Hello I think there is a conflict between setwd() and \SweaveOpts{prefix.string=}. In the same document, those both command get Sweave confuse the files and directories. See: say my .Rnw document is in File1 If one inserts some setwd() for another file: -setwd(File2) then the command \SweaveOpts{prefix.string=graphics/Rplots} will search the "graphics" folder in File2 because of

I use Fedora 10. I need to update my computer's R version. I apologise if this has come up before. The Debian and Ubuntu download links appear reasonably up to date. The Suse download links appear almost up to date. Unfortunately, the Fedora download links are from 2008/2009. http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ Should the Fedora links be removed or updated?

Hi, I recently compiled 1.6 on NT4 but I am having a problem with Sweave. Using the inbuilt 'Sweave-test-1.Rnw' file as an example: ------- > library(tools) > testfile <- file.path(.path.package("tools"), "Sweave", "Sweave-test-1.Rnw") ## create a LaTeX file Sweave(testfile) testfile <-

Hi R Community, I've just completed the initial version of (Linux-based) R package, called *makesweave*, for using Make to build Sweave documents efficiently. The idea is that R is started once (per shell) as a background process, then Make builds each Sweave source file, using the same R instance. More information in the package vignette. Feedback very welcome. regards -- Charlotte

Dear Colleagues: I have used \SweaveOpts{prefix.string=plot, eps = FALSE, pdf = TRUE} \SweaveOpts{width=5, height=4} <<fig=T>>= plot(...) @ But the figure still has a width of 80% of the text width, the default set up by Sweave, which issues a LateX command in Sweave.sty of \setkeys{Gin}{.8\textwidth}. Sweave.sty has a command \ifthenelse{\boolean{Sweave at

Hi List, I have a problem with using Latex and Sweave for creating a document. So I downloaded the Sweave manual from http://www.statistik.lmu.de/~leisch/Sweave/Sweave-manual.pdf and i have tried to replicate the example on pages 4-5, but i encounter the following problem: IT DOES NOT WORK. I can run Sweave, create the .tex file and then when building the .tex file in TeXnikCenter i get all

I created a tex file following the example in the Sweave help which produced the following files in my working directory. Sweave-test-1-006.eps Sweave-test-1-006.pdf Sweave-test-1-007.eps Sweave-test-1-007.pdf Sweave-test-1.tex When I run latex on this, I get a latex error, log file below. I am running R 2.1.1 on Windows XP. I have installed "small MiKTeX" and I have added

Hi all, I'm seeking feedback (good, bad or indifferent) in regards to developing (further) a new class system for R, that uses encapsulated class definitions (i.e. the method definitions are literally inside the body of the class definition). A working (however very rough and poorly tested) system is available in my R package "oosp" with documentation in the vignette

Hey all, Does anyone know if there are any R packages with a copy of the KJV? I'm guessing the answer is no... So the next question, and the more important one is: Does anyone think it would be useful (e.g. for text-mining purposes)? I know almost nothing about theology, so I'm not sure what kind of questions theologists might have (that R could answer). An alternative, that would

Hi, I've just tried to run example-3 from Friedrich Leish. I'm using R 1.8.1 and MiKTeX 2.2 on Windows XP. I go === > library(tools) > Sweave("example-3.Snw") Writing to file example-3.tex Processing code chunks ... 1 : term hide 2 : echo term verbatim 3 : term tex 4 : term verbatim eps pdf You can now run LaTeX on example-3.tex === The file example-3.tex

Hi: I am using Sweave and texi2dvi to generate a LaTeX document but can't find the way to hide the graphics while the R chunks are being executed. I thought results=hide would do it but that't not the case. If I do: \begin{figure}[h] <<figA=true,echo=F,fig=T,results=hide>>= a < rnorm(1000) plot(a) @ \caption{Weekly estimates.} \label{figure:ggplot1} \end{figure} The
