Hello, A post to R-Help by Oliver Soong reports what seems to be a bug specific to Windows (I'm on Windows 7). The original post is as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------- from: Oliver Soong <osoong+r at gmail.com> to: r-help <r-help at r-project.org> date: Fri, 7 Dec 2012 22:07:49 -0800 subject: [R] file.link fails on NTFS Windows 7 64-bit,

Hi, I have a question about the graphics changes in 2.7.0. The example is this bit of code: par(mfcol = c(2, 3)) for(i in 1:6) plot(1:10, 1:10, xlab = "xlab", ylab = "ylab", main = "main") In 2.7.0, if I do this interactively (using windows()), I get bold titles. If I do this through a png device, I get regular weight titles. If I do this in 2.6.2, both

Dear friends, I'm on windows, R 2.15.1 - library(ggplot2) #compiled under 2.15.2 qplot(mpg, wt, data=mtcars, colour=cyl) # directly from the qplot help Error in rename(x, .base_to_ggplot, warn_missing = FALSE) : could not find function "revalue" Is that due to a .1 lack in R All the best Troels Ring

Can somebody confirm some unexpected behavior? This is under Windows, with R 2.11.0 and 2.11.1. 1. Create a trivial test file (I called it test.R) containing: cat("Success.\n") 2. Load R (Gui or Term) and run: shell("\"C:\\path\\to\\Rscript.exe\" \"C:\\path\\to\\test.R\"") In my case, I get various error messages. If the path\\to\\Rscript.exe has spaces

Dear R Users, I am working in an environment in which I am not able to compile any code. Sad, but true. Is there a Windows 32-bit version of 2-15.2 anywhere ? I am currently unable to use packages Matrix and mgcv because they appear to have been compiled for 2-15.2 but only 2-15.1 is available for download from the regular CRAN websites.

I'm not 100% sure this hasn't been covered already (I searched a bit, but I had a little trouble filtering down to a useful number of useful results). Anyway, when I install R on Windows, the installer asks to set the default help type. For some reason, I can set it as HTML in the installer, but the results open as if help_type = "text" by default. I presume this is related to

Hello, I'm having some trouble trying to set the .libPaths() on Windows 7, R-2.15.0 and R-2.15.1. The environment variables R_LIBS and R_LIBS_USER are set according to the help page for .libPaths() and the Rprofile.site file has the default setting, as shown below. R-2.14.1 recognizes the lib paths but not R-2.15. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? (I've also tried with

Working on Windows I have had to deal with CSV files that, unfortunately, contain embedded Control-Zs, i.e. ASCII character 26 in decimal, and the readLines() function in R on Windows (2.15.2 and 3.0.0) appears to truncate at the control-Z. There is no problem at all on Ubuntu Linux with R 3.0.0. Am I mistaken or is this genuine? # Create a small file with embedded Control-Z h3 <-

Hi, I want to reporte some strange behaviour with the "months" function, from base R. When using "months" to extract months from a date column, I'm getting the months in english, when I was expecting months in spanish. When using "weekdays" to extract days of week from a date column, I'm getting the the days in spanish (as expected). My understanding is

If no 'type' is specified, download.packages("pkgname") will download source packages (.tar.gz files), even on Windows. However, the help says type character string, indicate which type of packages: see install.packages. and on Windows, install.packages defaults to downloading binary packages. Is this intended behaviour on the part of download.packages? This is on R

For what it's worth, I tried setting my Region | Formats setting to Spanish (Peru) in Windows 10 Control Panel, and got Spanish weekday and month results. I believe on Windows we use the Microsoft C strftime function to produce these strings, with the %A (for weekday) or %B (for month) formats. So this question probably needs to be addressed to Microsoft. Duncan Murdoch On 05/06/2017

I tried this on a Linux (Ubuntu) server invoking R from the command line and the result was the same, except that I could kill the R session from another terminal window.

Hi... I have come upon a problem with a regular expression which causes base-R to freeze. I have reproduced the phenomenon on several machines running R under Windows 10, and also under OSX on different Apple MACs. The minimal example is:- Oldterm is a vector of characters, e.g. "A", "B", "A", "*", "B" The regular expression is

Hello, This doesn't answer the question, but in portuguese it works as expected. > x <- as.Date("2017-06-05") > months(x) [1] "junho" > weekdays(x) [1] "segunda-feira" > sessionInfo() R version 3.4.0 (2017-04-21) Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) Running under: Windows 7 x64 (build 7601) Service Pack 1 Matrix products: default

Dears Sirs During my computational work I encountered unexpected behaviour when calling "ar" function. I want to select the order p of the autoregressive approximation by AIC criterion and sometimes an error occurs. Example: # time series

Dear Rlist, Using an example in box.cox.powers() help, I have the following warning message. example: library(car) >attach(Prestige) > box.cox.powers(income) Box-Cox Transformation to Normality Est.Power Std.Err.

Thank you Duncan and Rui for your time and interest in this issue. Maybe it is a problem with Windows 7 and Spanish, and not Windows 10. Let's wait for someone with the same enviroment, before assuming it's a problem with my PC/configuration. 2017-06-05 14:37 GMT-05:00 Duncan Murdoch <murdoch.duncan at gmail.com>: > For what it's worth, I tried setting my Region

Hi R-devel, The following code: all.equal(baseenv(), baseenv()) gives the error when run in a clean R session with latest R-devel (r66650): kevin:~$ R --vanilla --slave -e "all.equal(baseenv(), baseenv())" Error in all.equal.envRefClass(target[[i]], current[[i]], check.attributes = check.attributes, : attempt to apply non-function Calls: all.equal ...

The issue seems related to R bug report 15012: https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15012 As mentioned in the comments there, a pull request to the TRE library has recently been made, but I don't know about its status.
