Hello list, Is there any way to perform a block comment in R? In C++, anything in between a /* and */ is considered a comment, and it allows programmers to comment out chunks of code for testing and debugging. Is there such a feature in R? Cheers, Wee-Jin

Hi I could not get a custom "shadow:delimiter" for the vfs shadow_copy2 module to work successfully for me with Samba 4.6.2. I did not try previous versions. Based on my testing it seems that an additional line of code is needed in vfs_shadow_copy2.c as shown in the patch below (some comment updates are included too for code readability). Without the below patch, previous versions

How do I make the delimiter for cut be a single character with hex value 1e? I tried in a script file: DELIMITER='\x1e' DD=`echo $DATA | cut -f 1 --delimiter $DELIMITER` and it tells me: cut: the delimiter must be a single character Jerry

Hi all I hope to get some help on the separator. I am sure that I hava a wrong understanding what the separator is. I thaught the separator is the delimiter within the imap folder structure. For example: Imap folder structure: folder Flights, subfolder Lufthansa If the delimiter is ?.? the ls ?a command should result: .Flights .Flights.Lufthansa If delimiter is

Hi, I looked in the language definition and was surprised. Is there really no multi-line/block comment defined in R? I wanted to comment out 20 lines that I'm moving to a function but didn't want to delete them. Is there no defined way to get around using a # on each of the 20 lines? Thanks, Mark

The LSUB command does not act like LIST when provided with an empty mask argument. LIST responds with the hierarchy delimiter: * LIST (\Noselect) "." "" OK List completed. whereas LSUB doesn't return anything useful: OK Lsub completed. RFC 3501 doesn't specify what LSUB should do in this case, but Courier IMAP has LSUB act like LIST.

Hello Dear Samba Users, I have sucessfully set a samba share on a centos 7 box (samba 4.6.2) and succeeded into make work snapshots (vfs_shadow_copy2 with xfs and lvm). The snapshots appears well in windows previous versions. However, I expected to go further with snapshots and use the options "shadow:snapprefix" and "shadow:delimiter"in order to filter daily, weekly

R 1.9.1 requires multi-line strings to contain a backslash at the end of each line (except the last line). As noted by Mark Bravington (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/02b/5199.html) this requirement appears to be undocumented. In S-Plus 6.2, multi-line strings do not need a backslash for continuation. I recently (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04b/0256.html) requested

hi all, i've exim 4.53RC2 + dovecot-cvs on OSX 10.4.2. i'm working on implementing recipient-delimiters for delivery from exim to a user's imap store using dovecot's cvs-lda. reading on the wiki (Jakob's latest comments?): " ... the part after the delimiter is passed to the lda as an additional parameter. so dovecot-lda should handle that parameter and leave the

Hi there, Dovecot's LMTP implementation and Pigeonhole Sieve already do support the <user><delimiter><suffix> format. RfC 5233, the Sieve subaddress extension, also offers <prefix><delimiter><user>. Could Docecot's LMTP and Pigeonhole be extended to that effect? Thanks & greetings, Paul

Dear friends, Is there an easy way of commenting out a block of R code after it has been written? (I am aware that R-aware editors can insert # line-by-line while it is being written, but I want to basically block out chunks of R code in a few strokes.) This question was asked on this mailing list some time ago: Professor Ripley's answer was to try the following:

Hi All, I'm new to rsync usage in Mac OS X. I'm having a strange issue with -- files-from option. I'm providing the --files-from to provide a file , which contains the list of files separated by newline character , to perform backup operation.

I've been having problems with Pine 4.62 talking to Dovecot 1.0 stable. It's fine when the folder collection path is empty, but if I have "~/mail/" or "mail/" it gives access errors (I'm using the "~/mail/", "mail/" etc. hidden namespaces for backwards compatability). It seems to me that Dovecot is not replying correctly to a "LIST"

Hello, all. With the assistance of very helpful folks, our brand new multi-tenant setup seems to be working smoothly from start to finish with just a bump or two. The biggest is parking. Now that we got most kinks worked out, I'm a little more comfortable in trying to resolve this. There seem to be two problems: 1. Parking assigns parking spaces from the default group no matter
