well yes, I've only sent mail to R-devel,... When I started, I thought I would first let you give feedback on it,.. I can still change some of the names if any of you thinks it's necessary (and yes, no "April's fool" included...)

As some of you may know, there has been formed a "core team" of developers, who can dig directly into the R source at Auckland and fix bugs etc., in order to speed up development. There is a mailing list for that group. This is necessary, because some of the bugs discussed are not publicly available (and hopefully will never be!), but one potential risk of the structure is that we forget

This works in Splus: > x<-list() > x[["f"]]<-1 > zz<-"g" > x[[zz]]<-2 > x $f: [1] 1 $g: [1] 2 In R both variants fail unless the name is already on the list. The first one can be replaced by x$f, but there's seems to be no substitute for the other one (oh yes I found one, but it's not fit to print!). This comes up if you e.g. want to

This is to announce that Martin Maechler has set up a new mailing list with the purpose of investigating the possibility to use Tcl/Tk with R. As you may know, Tcl is a scripting language and Tk is its GUI toolkit. In the context of R, the main attractions are - portability X/Win3.1/Win32/Mac - ease of implementation (people say...) - nice GUI model of Tk - possibility of making language

In S, NULL and list() are not the same. In R they are (I think). --------------------------------------------------- At least, is.list(NULL) #-> 'F' in S; 'TRUE' in R Yes: I had an instance where this broke correct S code: match(c("xlab","ylab"), names(list(...))) when '...' is empty, gives an error in R, but gives c(NA,NA) in S.

Martin Your revisions to my S--R compatability code suggest that tempfile() is in R after 0.49. I don't find that to be the case. It requires code from Friedrich Leisch which still has to be added as of 0.50 alpha3.
