List, In order to get rid of some old, unreadable S3 code in package sp, I'm trying to rewrite things using S4 methods. Somewhere I fail, and I cannot sort out why. In order to isolate the problem, I created two functions, doNothing<- and dosth, and both should do nothing. The issue is that in most cases they do nothing, but in some cases dosth(obj) changes the class of obj and breaks with

Suppose I'm author of a package on which quite a few other packages depend. When I submit to CRAN, I run R CMD check on it, Kurt does that too, and if things work out fine, it is accepted. When one or more of the packages that depend on it break because of my changes, however, hell breaks loose. I would like to extend my testing (currently: R CMD check pkg) to running R CMD check on all

Dear All I would really appreciate some help with a script which a colleague wrote for me, but I am having problems running (and have not been able to contact my colleague). The script is designed to compare the area of suitable habitat in binary projections of a large number of species current and future distributions, and create an excel file detailing the total area suitable in the

When running a = runif(10) class(a) = "foo" Math.foo = function(x, ...) { NextMethod(.Generic) } signif(a, 3) cumsum(a) I don't understand why cumsum strips the class, but signif does not. Both claim in the documentation that "These are generic functions: methods can be defined for them individually or via the ?Math? group generic." -- Edzer Pebesma Institute for

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone here as successfully converted a package for windows to one that will work in Linux? What are the necessary steps if you have the source code? Thanks, Josh

Thanks, Paul -- setting the ~/.fonts.conf file the way ?X11 describes it under the section you pointed to resolved the problem for me, on ubuntu.

In plotmath expressions, R's degree symbol, e.g. shown by plot(1, main = parse(text = "1*degree*C")) has sunk to halfway the text line, instead of touching its top. In older R versions this looked much better. -- Edzer Pebesma Institute for Geoinformatics Heisenbergstrasse 2, 48151 Muenster, Germany Phone: +49 251 8333081

Hi Thanks for that, but I still cannot confirm on ... sudo docker run -v $(pwd):/home/work/ -w /home/work --rm -ti rocker/r-ver:3.5.1 Could you please read the comments within the "Cairo Fonts" section of the ?X11 help page, in case that offers some explanation.

Hi, I am using a samba server for file sharing in our companies IPv4 based LAN. The samba server is running as VM on a ubuntu 14.04 qemu/kvm host using ubuntu 14.04 as OS. I am using the lastet version available for samba: 4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2.14.04.3 My Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 client are able to find the server and connect to the shares but the Windows 8.1 client of a colleague is not able to

Hi all, I am running into problems using `summary.lm` as calling `var` on a `units` object does not retain the `units` attribute. The units package addresses this issue for `mean` by implementing `mean.units`: units:::mean.units function (x, ...) { .as.units(NextMethod(), units(x)) } This is, however, not possible for `var` (as it's not a generic), which breaks `summary.lm`: ```

Dear list, I'm using the windows version of R. When plotting a curve or a line for time series with annual data , e. g. GDP growth 1991-2003, the line seems to exist of a lot of smaller lines. Printing the results the curves and lines seems to be "unclean" (because of using small resolution bitmaps?). Comparing the result of R with the same results of Excel the lines in excel seems

Dear R folks While preparing figures of 'envfit' plots with vegan for publication, I ran into a layout problem, that I found no solution for in the literature or the help archive: The labels of the vectors that indicate correlations of environental variables sometimes overlap with each other or with other content of the figure. Hence, I would like to rearrange them. Is there a

Hallo everyone! Has anyone an idee to get out data of more than one Excel-file via RODBC with one single sqlQuery-command? The RODBC-manual shows how the sql command shoot run, but every time I try, I got an error, that the ODBC-connection to one of the files was not successful. If I make a sqlQuery for only one file (e. g. in DatAllg.XLS without variables from DatBev.XLS / b. ...), the

Hi List, I just updated an old sendmail installation to a modern postfix/dovecot system with mysql backend. Everything works fine but SMTP-AUTH fails with some clients. The problem is, that with PLAIN (old) clients send the base64 coded form: USERNAME\0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which, as i understand dovecot interprets as MASTERUSER\0USERNAME\PASSWORD. New clients send \0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which works

Hi, I read about the by() function, but it does not seem to do the job I need. Here is the problem: Say - I have a data frame, with three columns. The first one contains strings that describe the data points, with repeats (for example, days of a week). The other two contain numbers. Something like that: Day val1 val2 Tue 1 2 Tue 2 8 Tue 3 5 Wed 1 2 Wed 1 8 etc. Now I would

Hi! I noticed that `ssh -D /tmp/socket $myhost` will actually provide a socks server listing on the unix domain socket /tmp/socket (this does not appear to be documented, though it is semi-documented for -L and -R). Do you know of any "socksification" script to go along with it, in the spirit of tsocks of socksify (from dante)? Those do not seem to support socks servers running on

Dear all, I am having troubles importing values written as scientific notation using read.table(). I'm sure this is a frequent problem, as many people in my lab have this problem as well, so I'm sure that I just have troubles googling for the right solution. The problem is, that, given a file like that: a 1 2e-4 b 2 3e-8 ... the third column gets imported as a factor, or a string if I
