Hi, in help("R_GSCMD") it says "R_GSCMD: Optional. The path to Ghostscript, used by dev2bitmap, bitmap and embedFonts. Consulted when those functions are invoked.". However, if 'R_GSCMD' contains a full pathname to the Ghostscript executable (as above "path" indicates), e.g. > Sys.getenv("R_GSCMD") [1] "C:\\Program

An updated toolchain is now being used for Windows' builds of R-devel: details are in the R-admin manual and at http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/ and http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ Both 32- and 64-bit parts of the toolchain use v2.0.1 of the Mingw-w64 project's runtime and a beta of gcc 4.5.4: the Mingw.org project's builds are no longer used. This should mean that

We were also able to reproduce the issue on Windows Server 2012. If there's anything we can do to help please let me know; Elliot Waingold (CC'd here) can provide access to the VM we used for testing if that's of any help. # David Smith -- David M Smith <davidsmi at microsoft.com> R Community Lead, Revolution Analytics (a Microsoft company)?

Hello All: I'm still unable to get Rprofile.site to set, e.g., options(max.print=222), as I did with previous versions of R. I just found similar questions posed by Trevor Miles and Ross Bowden with replies by Uwe Ligges and Duncan Murdoch. In addition to the things I tried documented below, I also copied Rprofile.site into "R_HOME/etc/i386" and

Someone inquired on StackOverflow about apparently non-deterministic graphics behaviour in R. I noticed that they were using cex="*" and discovered some potentially weird behavior. On repeated runs of the same code I can get different PNGs. If I set the number of runs high enough, I seem to be able to get R to hang. If I do a single version plotting to an interactive graphics

I would like to incorporate multiple summary plots from the rms package into a single device and to control the titles, and also to open a new device when I reach a specified number of plots. Currently I am only getting a single "plot(summary(" graph in the upper left- hand corner of each successive device. However, in the rms documention I see instances of a loop being used with

Hi, I've read ?is.unsorted and searched. Have found a few items but nothing close, yet. Is the following expected? > is.unsorted(data.frame(1:2)) [1] FALSE > is.unsorted(data.frame(2:1)) [1] FALSE > is.unsorted(data.frame(1:2,3:4)) [1] TRUE > is.unsorted(data.frame(2:1,4:3)) [1] TRUE IIUC, is.unsorted is intended for atomic vectors only (description of x in ?is.unsorted).

Dear all, I'm calling Winbugs (1.4.3) through R2WinBugs (2.1-18 coda_0.14-7) to fit a switching random walk model, but come up with an instant trap with the log only displaying 'check('. I will paste the trap with session info below; I'd be very grateful for any ideas. Couple of leads: 1. I presume the problem relates to the r package itself or the way I call bugs(), because I

Hello- I understand that it's convention, when comparing two models using the anova function anova(model1, model2), to put the more "complicated" (for want of a better word) model as the second model. However, I'm using lme in the nlme package and I've found that the order of the models actually gives opposite results. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be the case

I see the problem on Windows 10, R-3.4.0, R.exe. It is not compiled for debugging but gdb gives some information when I attach the debugger after the 'R..has stopped working' popup appears.

Just thought I would mention that the issue below (and in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2013-April/066318.html) is still not resolved. It hasn't been a big problem, but it potentially could be, if a critical package were to have this error on release day, then all its dependencies would fail to build, which would probably require us to postpone our release.

I am not able to reproduce your segfault on a Windows 7 platform either: ########################## fn1 <- "d:/DADOS_ENEM_2009.txt" sessionInfo() ## R version 3.4.1 (2017-06-30) ## Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) ## Running under: Windows 7 x64 (build 7601) Service Pack 1 ## ## Matrix products: default ## ## locale: ## [1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252 ## [2]

The original file had a lot of trailing null bytes so I tried making a similar file with: tf <- tempfile(); file <- file(tf, "wb") for(i in 1:(2^15-1))writeBin(rep(as.raw(32:127), len=2^16), file) for(i in 1:(2^15-1))writeBin(rep(as.raw(0L), len=2^16), file) close(file) log2(file.size(tf)) #[1] 31.99996 Reading this with readLines() caused R-3.4.0 to segfault in Rf_con_pushback
