similar to: Error in compactPDF/find_gs_cmd or documentation?

Hi, in help("R_GSCMD") it says "R_GSCMD: Optional. The path to Ghostscript, used by dev2bitmap, bitmap and embedFonts. Consulted when those functions are invoked.". However, if 'R_GSCMD' contains a full pathname to the Ghostscript executable (as above "path" indicates), e.g. > Sys.getenv("R_GSCMD") [1] "C:\\Program

Dear List, There seems to be an bug in compactPDF() or at least an inconsistency with the documented behaviour. The documentations states: Details: This by default makes use of ?qpdf?, available from <URL: http://qpdf.sourceforge.net/>, including a Windows binary. If ?gs_cmd? is non-empty, GhostScript is used. I don't have qpdf on my system so planned to use

A colleague designed a script for a bar plot, which I'd like to export to my directory via the barplot command: bitmap(file="barplot.tif", type="tifflzw", height=4, width=6.5, res=1250) Unfortunately, this command produces the following error message: Error in system(paste(gsexe, "-help"), intern = TRUE, invisible = TRUE) : 'gswin32c.exe' not found

Hi, I have asked this question before, but the solution I ended up with (see below) creates a note when running R CMD check. So I am trying again... I am developing a package B that, among other things, also offers some extra S3-methods for functions in package A if the user has installed A. I do not want to list A under Depends of B, as the dependency list of A is rather long, and most

I am failing to get compactPDF to make any change to a pdf file that, a/c to the message from the CRAN upload site, can be very substantially compacted. Any ideas what may be wrong? I have also tried recreating the pdf file. I also tried R CMD build --resave-data --compact-vignettes DAAG The data files compact alright (but I get the 'significantly better compression' warning message

Thanks a lot for your answer Jeroen! I should have mentioned that I had actually only checked with the win-builder, as I did not have R-devel installed on my computer. But based on your answer I installed R-devel locally on a Linux-server (Redhat), and the package could be checked without the NOTE. So you might be right that this is a windows issue. However, another package that I am maintaining

Hi, One of the functions I use needs to write to a temporary file, in the directory given by tempdir(). I want to change this from the standard one, as the file is too large for the drive. However, tempfile() doesnt seem to respect the environment variables when I change them with Sys.setenv(). In a fresh R-session: > Sys.getenv("TMP") [1]

I first answered to the email below in r-help, but as I did not see any response, and it looks like a bug/unwanted behavior, I am also posting here. I have observed this in RGui, whereas it seems not to happen in RStudio. Similar to OP, I sometimes have a problem with functions using the progress bar. Frequently, the console is cleared after x iterations when the progress bar is called in a

Dear list, I am trying to update a package to pass the CRAN-checks. But I am struggling with the following note: File 'psgp/libs/i386/psgp.dll': Found no calls to: 'R_registerRoutines', 'R_useDynamicSymbols' File 'psgp/libs/x64/psgp.dll': Found no calls to: 'R_registerRoutines', 'R_useDynamicSymbols' It is good practice to register native

Dear list, I needed to extract a zip-archive, and found zip.file.extract in utils. My only problem was the use of tempdir(), since I wanted to permanently extract the archive at a fixed location for later use. My own fix was simple, adding an extra parameter zipdir (without default), and within the function change tmpd <- tempdir() to tmpd = ifelse(missing(zipdir),tempdir(),zipdir) This

I couldn't run PostScriptTrace() from the package "grImport" without an error. At first the postscript program couldn't be found. however the problem persisted after the full path the postscript program was indicated. I read earlier post on the subject in vain. See the codes and output below. The file "Senegal_location_map.ps" was originally a "svg" file from:

Hi, I want to automatically fit variograms to a large number of different sample data sets, and call the funtion "likfit" (in package geoR) from within a for-loop. "likfit" does again call "optim". After ssuccessfully fitting variograms to some of the data sets, the procedure crashes and I get the error message: Error in optim(par = ini, fn = negloglik.GRF,

All, I am new to using R and know some basics. I wish to use kriging in R to do the following: given data Y =f(X1,X2,X3,.....,Xn) --1000+ irregular measured data set. I would like to be able to get a single value y given sinle input set (x1,x2,x3,...xn) A google search on this takes me lierally to the same example on involving analysis with soil sampling and I cannot figure out how to
