similar to: R-alpha: Re: Extensions .R and .Rd (in base/funs/ and base/man/ )

Whatever extensions are decided on for any of the R stuff it is important to realize that Windows (3.11) only lets you have one dot (.) and then only 3 characters. The base name should be only 8 characters long as well. Since I'm worrying about it a little these days I just want to put my 2 cents worth in on this topic. It is looking like a real pain to translate the current set of html files

Kurt, if you really want to find out what things an S help file can contain, you must learn some nroff/troff [ maybe use 'groff', the GNU one ]. As always, ultimate documentation is == source. The definition of the S help is in the two files $SPLUS/cmd/help.[nt]r where nr ^= nroff, i.e. ASCII output tr ^= troff i.e. printed output (e.g via Postscript conversion) help.tr

Version 0.60 of R for Unix is now available. Release of this version has been delayed for a variety of reasons, but we hope that it will provide a good deal more stability and functionality than previous versions. However it should be regarded as of "alpha" quality for a short shakedown period. We would like user feedback to help us improve the quality of R. You can do this by

These are all in the port of 1.2.3pre2: - configure accepts --includedir, but doesn't seem to pass it on to the Makefile. You have to edit the Makefile manually if you have include files anywhere but /usr/include. Which is a problem because... - The Makefile doesn't include /usr/local/include by default, which is where zlib installs itself by default. Probably oughta be in there.

The .Options vector had been introduced a while ago after my suggestion (see Ross's E-mail below). .Options$digits is used be default in several print methods (eg print.lm), however, deparse(.) e.g., uses options()$width, and not .Options$width. Another problem is that .Options is still not in the documentation (on-line help). Before one could add it there, we'd need ``the
