Could someone please point me to where information about the two entries %\VignetteDepends{} and %\VignettePackage{} are documented? I'm getting an error with %\VignetteDepends{} with my package name in braces. Looking at the vignettes on my system, some include the package name and some don't. Should it be there? If so, why might I be getting an error doing so? $ R CMD check SuperCurve

R CMD check gives an error when a vignette entry %\VignetteDepends{} has any extra space at the end. Maybe this is by design, but I found it confusing. Changing the function "vignetteMetaRE" in tools package could solve the problem. I.e. vignetteMetaRE <- function(tag) paste("[[:space:]]*%+[[:space:]]*\\\\Vignette", tag,"\\{([^}]*)\\}", sep = "")

In ?Sweave, it refers to Sweave User Manual. In the doc folder of utils package, I see "Sweave.pdf". However, I can't find it from within R > vignette("Sweave User Manual") Warning message: vignette ?Sweave User Manual? not found > browseVignettes("utils") No vignettes found by browseVignettes("utils") > library(help=utils) does not

Dear all, I just noticed, that prompt () looses backticks that protect default arguments: f <- function (FUN = `*`) {} cat (prompt (f, NA)$usage) yields: \usage{ f(FUN = *) } %- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here. without the backticks, which is of course found by R CMD check as syntax error. While this is easily fixed if the .Rd is further edited manually, I

Dear List, a second, more general, question concerning S4 classes. I have a bunch of functions/methods for my class. At the moment I have them as methods, because they work on objects of my S4 class and therefore "belong" to that class. On the other hand, it is comparably unlikely that someone else wants the same kind of method. And package.skeleton () produces the

Dear all, I work with (vibrational) spectra: some kind of intensity (I) over frequency (nu), wavelength or the like. I want to do fourier transform for interpolation, smoothing, etc. My problem is that the spectra are often irregularly spaced in nu: the difference between 2 neighbouring nu varies across the spectrum, and data points may be missing. Searching for discrete fourier transform

Dear all, I just stumbled over the fact that subsetting by square bracket will only output the first given index. I guess the rest is thrown away by the CADDR in RenderSub (plotmath.c l. 1399). Maybe changing this could be considered as "low-priority desired" (would be nice if the output works for ? However, I suggest to announce the fact that only the first parameter is printed in

Dear R-Developers, could 'sample' gain a ... argument? As a convenience function, I added a sample Method to my hyperSpec class. This function however has a flag indicating whether the results should be returned directly as a hyperSpec object or rather as indices that give a random sample. For the moment, I use SetGeneric to add the dots argument, but this of course gives a warning

I?m preparing a package (fastR) for submission to CRAN, but the vignette index keeps going AWOL, or at least R CMD check ?as-cran thinks so. I?ve tried several things and gave myself the weekend to think of other things, but I can?t figure it out. Perhaps someone on the list can lend a hand. Here?s one example situation, where I build the index.html file myself and put it in inst/doc/index.html

Dear all, I just spent quite a while fixing a weird error in my vignettes while doing R CMD build and R CMD check R CMD Sweave ran fine, though. The cause turned out to be: 1. I have a data set flu, 2. and a corresponding vignette explaining things one can do with that object. This vignette creates another object flu (which masks the packages one). 3. Now when the next vignette is

Dear list, dear Henrik, I find myself often reconstructing matrices from the result of rowSum (matrix) etc. I therefore propose a new argument, drop, for these functions: drop = TRUE (default) is the current behaviour. With drop = FALSE length (dim (x)) and dimnames are preserved and the affected dimensions are set to 1 (or whatever teh result length of the applied function is) I modified the

Dear list, I have a matrix, spc, that should row-wise be interpolated: E.g. spc <- matrix (1:1e6, ncol = 250, nrow = 4000, byrow = TRUE) spc [1:10, 1:10] shifts <- seq_len (nrow (spc)) wl <- seq_len (ncol (spc)) interpolate <- function (spc.row, shift, wl) spline (wl + shift, spc.row, xout = wl, method = "natural")$y interpolate (spc [1,], shift = shifts [1], wl = wl)

Dear all, I'm puzzled with matrix indices in plotmath. I'm plotting matrix elements: Z [i, i], and I'd like to put that as label. I'll describe what I want and what I get in LaTeX-notation. The output should look like Z_{i, i}, and my first try was plot (1, 1, ylab = expression (Z[i, i])) That, however, gives me Z_{i} (no comma, no second i) although the expression looks OK

Dear list, I'm stuck with looking for a function of the *apply family, which I suppose exists already ? just I can't find it: What I'm looking for is somewhere between sweep and mapply that does a calculation vectorized over a matrix and a vector: It should work complementary to sweep: for each row of the matrix, a different value of the vector should be handed over. Close to

I am having trouble converting the output from Sweave into a valid PDF file. I have created a simple .Rnw file which will become a full vignette at some point, but during the intermediate testing, I got errors from texi2dvi. This is what I have done. 0) Using a Windows Xp system 1) Created a file called GeneSpring.Rnw 2) Convert this to Tex using Sweave("GeneSpring.Rnw") from within R

Dear all, I have trouble with R-beta sweaving files that include definitions with \SweaveInput in combination with keep.source = TRUE Symptom: SInput is taken from too far down the input file (the shift is the number of lines of the included file). Is that known? Searching didn't turn up anything, yet I think there are more people than just me using keep.source. Example: $

Dear List, I'm struggling with the signature writing cbind/rbind functions for a S4 class. First of all, I'm very happy that it is now possible to dispatch on ...

I'm finalizing development of a package that will include a vignette. Without the vignette, the package builds fine with no warnings and is ready for distribution. Now, I am following the directions for developing vignettes "Sweave, Part II: Package Vignettes" by Friedrich Leisch. I am using a windows XP machine (other session info below). Here is what I have done. 1) I add the
