Hi, Iwrote 'pdfc' in analogy to 'lpr': pdfc <- function (file = "Rplot.pdf") { current.device <- dev.cur() dev.off(dev.copy(device = pdf, file = file, ...)) dev.set(current.device) print(paste(file, "generated.")) } lpr <- function (object, file = "Rplotlpr.ps", ...) { if (missing(object)) { current.device <-

Dear Deepayan Sarkar, I have (again) a question concerning "panel" and my function "SplomT", see attachments. Some time ago you helped me to write this function, thanks again. I have used it to great advantage in my statistics instructions. Now the problem I encounter is that the .pdf figure generated in Sweave consists of one extra empty page at the start. This prevents

Hi, Each > help.start() generates a new tree of the R help system, somewhere in 127.0.0.1:xxx, each xxx being difeerent. This tree disappears when exiting R. How can the current help tree copied to a permanent place for reference outside a running R? This would be practical for not having to enter M-x R . TIA --Christian -- Christian W.

Hi, sorry for bothering, but I suspect the start of M-x R within Aquamacs is causing my problems: *Scrolling* is *not possible*, neither by key stroke nor by mouse. Aquamacs does not show all windows. 'Prefences', 'About A.', 'Check fo updates' will not open. Menu 'windows' shows several windows, but clicking on them will not open their buffers. Also,

Hi, Every time I do system("R CMD check mypackckage" the process executes a help.start(). Why does this happen? Cheers Christian -- Christian W.

Hi, I have revised my package cwhmisc and want to re-submit it (meeting a deadline soon).

Dear all, I have invested substantial amount of work in a complicated, yet on screen perfect looking graph that uses image(). Unfortunately saving it as pdf (or quartz.save at high resolution) all generate very disturbing border lines around each small rectangle that image() has drawn. While using Preview it helps to turn off antialiasing to make those faint lines disappear on screen

Hi, I experienced a sudden change in the behavior of M-x R in not giving me the choice where to start R. May be that I botched my preferences. I am using Aquamacs 3.3 on MacOS 10.12.6 Christian -- Christian Hoffmann Rigiblickstrasse 15b CH-8915 Hausen am Albis Switzerland Telefon +41-(0)44-7640853

Full_Name: Luis Lopez-Oliveros Version: 2.7.0 OS: Mac OS X 10.5.2 Submission from: (NULL) (71.176.115.32) In R 2.7.0 for Mac OS X, Quartz plots are drawn a little bit off-screen. What happens is that the plots appear to be displayed a little below than where they should be in the Quartz window, causing the x-axis to be drawn off-screen, "below" the bottom of the Quartz window. When

Full_Name: Martin Renner Version: 1.6.0 OS: MacOS X 10.2.1 Submission from: (NULL) (134.153.109.176) Opening a new graphics device with quartz () produces a quartz window but it cannot be resized, there's no red close-button and R usually crashes within the next 20 seconds (unexpectedly quit). Also, I can't copy this window (copy does not do anything, old clipboard is not replaced).

I ran this script in a source file on my Mac: library(lattice) year <- 1900:2000 dollars <- (year-1899)^2 plot(year,dollars) quartz("year") histogram(~dollars) The first plot appears in Quartz 2. The second quartz window, named year, opens but the histogram doesn't appear. However, when I copy and paste this script directly into the R console, both quartz windows (Quartz 2

Hello all, I am using quartz (on OS X obviously) to produce PDFs and PNGs from my plots, for later inclusion in LaTeX. I am typically using something like: plot(0) dev.print(quartz, file="foo.pdf", width=5, height=3) dev.print(quartz, file="foo.png", width=5, height=3, dpi=72) I want the sizes of the PDF and PNG to be *equal* in *inches*, which works with dpi=72. However,
