Hi, I've been having problems getting MCMCpack installed on my Solaris 10 x86 system. I've installed gcc from opencsw.org, and, for the most part, other R packages install nicely. >From what I can gather, the build fails due to a mismatch of include files. I *think* it wants to use the include files that are contained within the MCMCpack package (but I could be wrong on this - if this

Hi, I have question about username map and ACL. I'm using samba 3.0.11( with winbind) on FreeBSD 5.3. samba is AD member and that server provide NFS service. NFS user uses NIS. Because each user's windows's username and NIS username is different, we use username map like following. unix0001 = win0001 unix0002 = win0002 When win0001 makes file, that file is created as

Hi, I tried building the version 4.2p1 on the FreeBSD box. Even if I executed the configure script with --with-rpath and --with-libedit=/path/to/libedit the -R options for libedit are NOT added in linking although that for zlib and OpenSSL are correctly done. This problem can be easily avoided by editing openssh-4.2p1/Makefile after executing the configure script. This means that you

I wonder if anyone who has worked on the win32 version of R could help me with a HtmlHelp question? When you're building a win32 program using mingw (in my case, cross-compiling under GNU/Linux), what import library do you use to link against the HtmlHelp() function? I have got a copy of MS's htmlhelp.lib, but mingw doesn't seem to like this format; it wants an archive in .a format.

Hi folks, R on ESS Why it is unable to pop up help manual on "R on ESS"? ?layout Error in help("layout", htmlhelp = FALSE) : unused argument(s) (htmlhelp = FALS ?plot Error in help("plot", htmlhelp = FALSE) : unused argument(s) (htmlhelp = FALSE) etc. But they work on R console and popup the manual without problem. TIA B.R. Stephen L

What library(help=foo) produces is not HTML and has no hyperlinks, so why do you want it displayed in a browser? If you do want text displayed in a browser, you can set options("pager") to point to your browser (or a wrapper). It is no different from other library() help modes, like library() with no argument, nor from help(package="foo"). Indeed, the help for help says

I noticed this bug before in R 1.2.0. Can't remember whether it was there in earlier versions. > help.start() Making links in ~/.R ... If /home/peter/sbin/netscape is already running, it is *not* restarted, and you must switch to its window. Otherwise, be patient.. > help("help", package = "base") help() for help is shown in

I've rolled up R-2.10.0.tar.gz some hours ago. This is a development release which contains a number of new features, notably a brand new HTML based dynamic help system. Also, a number of mostly minor bugs have been fixed. See the full list of changes below. You can get it from http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.10.0.tar.gz or wait for it to be mirrored at a CRAN site nearer to

Michael, thanks for this info. I've stumbled upon this in a case where I walk an R expression (the AST) and (optionally) modifies it (part of the globals package). In R expressions, a function definition uses a pairlist to represent the arguments. For example, > expr <- quote(function(x = 1) x) > str(as.list(expr)) List of 4 $ : symbol function $ :Dotted pair list of 1 ..$ x:

The coercion is probably the most viable workaround for now, as it's consistent with what happens internally for calls. All pairlists/calls are converted to list for subassignment, but only calls are converted back. My guess is that the intent was for users to move from using a pairlist to the "new" (almost 20 years ago) list. In my opinion, consistency trumps "convenience"

Thanks, this was what I expected. There is a desire to eliminate the usage of pairlist from user code, which suggests the alternative of allowing for function arguments to be stored in lists. That's a much deeper change though. On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 12:31 PM, Henrik Bengtsson <henrik.bengtsson at gmail.com> wrote: > Michael, thanks for this info. > > I've stumbled upon

Hi, ?pairlist gives no explanation about what exactly is the difference between a pairlist and a list (except that a pairlist of length 0 is 'NULL'). So, what's a pairlist? class(.Options) [1] "pairlist" Some strange things about the "pairlist" type: > showClass("pairlist") Error in getClass(Class) : "pairlist" is not a defined class

Hi, I seem to not be able to assign NULL to an element of a pairlist without causing it to be coerced to a plain list. For example: > x <- pairlist(1, 2) > class(x) [1] "pairlist" > x[1] <- list(NULL) > class(x) [1] "list" This actually true for all [()<- assignments regardless of list value, e.g. > x <- pairlist(1, 2) > x[1] <- list(0) [1]
