i am using r 1.1.0 and ess 5.1.13 on win2k (with an amd k7). things behave strangely. i can start r with M-x R and i can give a command the command will be executed and i will get the answer, but i will not get a prompt for entering the next command in most cases. when i do graphics command, things are even more surprising. then i get a prompt, but somtimes the graphics window cannot be brought

Dear list, Not strictly R ... In R on Xemacs with ESS (R-2.0.1, Xemacs-21.4.15-r3, ESS-5.2.6) on gentoo-linux when I use k<-edit(k) or fix(k) to change a small vector k <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6) the opened window (called '6b8b4567') appears not to be connected to the gnuclient and I'm able to edit the file but has no instructions in the minibuffer and C-x # gives '6b8b4567 does

Greetings from Switzerland! Are there any plans/initiatives/considerations in future versions of R for commenting out regions via something like " /* */ "? (I've got an application for which something like that would be useful; if not, there are less simple solutions). best, -tony "Commit early,commit often, and commit in a repository from which we can easily roll-back

R-devel, SVN revision 35729 (this morning, euro-time) So far, I'm having awful luck with the "installWithVers" flags. Recent example: I can install.packages("lattice", installWithVers=TRUE) successfully (no errors, at least it looks like a successful install), but can't load it: Error in library.dynam(pkg,pkg,lib) : shared library 'lattice_0.12-7' not found

Well, nothing has changed in the issues that I brought up earlier, except that I can confirm core dumps in non-threaded lisps as well (CLISP), using svn version 37840 (this morning, Seattle time) for R-2-3-patches. I've not tried Thomas' suggested fixes, as I'm hesistant to go down the road of fixing R in such a way that would require constant patching. (so for those counting,

Greetings! I have a few colleagues who like the idea of Sweave, but have failed to become enlightened monks of the One True Editor (http://www.dina.dk/~abraham/religion/) Are there any other Microsoft-centric editors or IDEs which have solid support for writing SWeave documents (dual R / LaTeX enhancements similar to ESS's support)? Has anyone tried the folding editors which support Noweb?

For those who suggest other ways to do this, I ALREADY HAVE ANOTHER DESIGN SOLUTION, DESCRIBED AT THE END. That being said, I want to know if it's possible to reference a slot in an S4 class from another slot, i.e. I'd like to have the "self.*" semantics of Python so that I can reuse a slot. That is, for various reasons it would be nice to be able to do something like:

Dear all - My group at Novartis is looking for statisticians, bioinformaticians, or R programmers to support molecular diagnostics, with open positions in Cambridge MA, USA (priority) and in Basel Switzerland (possible). We do a range of data analyses across product lifecycle (research, tech dev, clin dev, market access) to support the development of prognostic and

It might be my settings or improper use -- but if I use the "installWithVers=TRUE" flag for update.packages(), I don't seem to get updates; and if I use "install.packages(new.packages(),installWithVers=TRUE)", it seems to (re-)install identical versions of what I have.

Just saw this in the Windows Secret blog: Get official and unofficial fixes for Excel By Brian Livingston Despite the hotfix that Microsoft recently released for Excel 2007, as I described on Oct. 11, some math errors that you should know about still lurk in both Excel 2007 and Excel 2003. I'll bring you up to date and explain how you can get better results from Excel. Baier and

1. This query belongs in r-help, not in r-devel 2. Pity about your shift key... 3. The function you need is deparse() rather than as.character(): > fff <- function(x) { + x*x + } > deparse(body(fff)) [1] "{" "x * x" "}" > 4. There is a reason why as.character works this way. It transforms to character from a more fundamental representation of

I will say this first -- I can't copy/paste the error message from the screen, so it's being retyped. Errors might occur. SORRY. I've been experiencing some interesting stack warnings recently when moving from R 2.2.x to the R 2.3.0 series and the R 2.4.0 series. In particular, I'm getting warnings of "Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit" before
