similar to: generating HTML help pages

I've just committed code that allows R to be built with support for dynamic help pages using \Sexpr in Rd files. Define USE_NEW_HELP and the R function tools:::.convertRdfiles will be used instead of the Perl RdConv script, supporting \Sexpr and using the new R converters. Currently only text help has the macros evaluated when the user asks for help; the others are rendered at install

Dear all, sorry to bother you with potentially known issue -- we have noticed that if we select data frame rows by rownames, we get some results back if the match can be done unambiguously, though the match is not perfect (see example), e.g. x{"2",] will return a row if there is a unique row with name starting with "2" (but may be "2375745"!) is that a

With a pretty recent version of R 2.11.0 (devel,unstable, svn 50178) on Linux I could not install version 1.5-8 of zoo (the current on on CRAN): % R-devel CMD INSTALL -l Rlib3 zoo * installing *source* package 'zoo' ... ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices converting help for package 'zoo' finding

Hello, Just decided to check whether I am doing something that makes sense or not. I was thinking about how cool would it be to re-use examples (just like we reuse story scenarios with GivenScenario). I was not sure if this possibility already exists in rspec (and, honestly, was lazy to check), so I have created this helper: def given_it(name) example_definition =

I think tools::Rd2HTML has a problem with the dl tag. Under some conditions, <p> and </p>, and <dl> and </dl> are not nested correctly. Here is an example from the "options" doc file: -- <p> <dl> <dt><code>save.defaults</code>, <code>save.image.defaults</code>:</dt><dd> see

Dear All, I would like to have an advice for designing an R library, and thought that R-devel may be the best place to ask given so many people who are highly expert in R are around. We are at an early stage of designing an R library, which is effectively an interface to a C++ library providing fast access to large matrices stored on HDD as binary files. The core of the C++ library is

Hi, I have spent a few hours on the R-exts manual and the documentation of parse_Rd() (as well as the PDF document in the references), but I still have not figured out what results=rd means. I thought I could use an R code fragment to create an Rd fragment dynamically. Here is an example, in which I was expected the output to be a describe list <DL> in HTML, but it turns out not to be true.

I''ve become very fond of Yurii Rashkovskii''s "aspects". For such a simple change they make it a LOT easier to navigate, read and verify specs. Are there any plans to include something like this in RSpec? Ashley

I've just committed some fairly big changes to R-devel. - There's a new tag \Sexpr which allows R code to be embedded within the Rd file, similar to Sweave, \RdOpts corresponds to \SweaveOpts. - The parser now mainly issues warnings, rather than errors, in case of syntax errors. It throws away a few tokens and tries to restart. This should let you see most of your errors in

Hey, May be it is just too deep night over here and I''m missing something though I got this failure on {{{response.should_not redirect_to}}}: ''QueuesController should allow authenticated user to access ''show'''' FAILED Matcher does not support should_not. See Spec::Matchers for more information about matchers. Also I''ve found this in

Dear developers, I came across with a bug while parsing Rd files. Given is the following minimal Rd file: ---- \name{foo} \title{foo} \description{ #ifdef windows win #endifd #ifdef unix unix #endif } ---- By accident I have a typo at line 6, instead of having #endif I typed #endifd. If I run checkRd(), parse_Rd(), Rd2HTML(), or others including the command line "R CMD Rconv" R

There is already 10 PRs sent to GitHub repo. But they all are useless, in every PR people are being informed that they should send patches to http://reviews.llvm.org/

Hi, I am doing a small experiment to test if I can use MathJax ( official site: http://www.mathjax.org ) in R's html help pages (i.e. options(help_type='html')) and it seems working with some minor modifications. The screenshot (rendered by Firefox 4.0 beta and with STIX fonts) of the help page in html format with MathJax enabled is at the following url:

Hello, Here's an example that renders correctly using Rd2txt / Rd2latex / R CMD Rd2pdf, but has problems under Rd2HTML: \name{foo} \title{foo} \section{foo}{ This should be on a separate paragraph This should be on a separate paragraph This should be on a separate paragraph \Sexpr[stage=render,results=rd]{ paste( rep('Sexpr: This should be on a separate

I'm trying to get help to print the help pages in html format to the terminal. This is in order to be able to see the html help files remotely. If I do printURL = function(file) {a=readLines(url(file));cat(a,sep="\n")} options(browser=printURL) options(help_type="html") then invoking help with ?print gets stuck. I think what happens is that the web server run by R that

Hi. I''m upgrading a project from an 0.8.0 pre-release gem to 0.8.2. I''ve installed the 0.8.2 gem, and the rspec_on_rails 0.8.2 plugin: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_8_2/rspec When I try to run my specs though, I get the below error. It''s as if the spec_helper cannot find "spec/rails". I''ve noticed that

I'd like to generate 00Index.html for a bunch of libraries for my R search page. I have now almost all the html help files for individual functions, even for packages that won't install on my computer (e.g., because they are specific to Windows). I made these using Rdconv. But that won't make the 00Index file, and neither will Rdindex, which makes a text file. I'm probably
