Dear R People: In the function "decompose", the object has the class of "decomposed.ts". (from package stats) I would like to see the class definition and the method for the plotting.

Dear R People: I'm using R in a time series class. This class is being broadcast live to 2 remote sites via closed circuit TV. My people at the remote sites are having a terrible time seeing the computer screen as it is broadcast(resolution issues). I have decided to put together Power Point slides for the teaching. I am currently saving the R screen as WMF files and inserting them into

Dear R People: When will version 1.9 (for Windows) be ready, please? My reason for asking: there is an interesting library from Bioconductor called tkWidgets. However, it will only work with version 1.9.0 or higher. Are there ways around this, or should I just be patient? Thanks so much in advance!

Dear R People: I'm still struggling with sending methods and classes as part of creating a new package. Where does the .onLoad function go? Within R itself or in a file in one of the new package directories?
