Change in Ubuntu support policy
Due to the increasing difficulty to maintain R backports for a three year old Ubuntu release, we are immediately dropping support for Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake". It also appears that few, if any, people were expecting an up-to-date version of R for Dapper on the desktop. So far, our policy was to support all Ubuntu releases until their official end of life date. For Long Term

Easy to install GNU Emacs for Windows

S3 methods for cbind/rbind
I created a type of object similar to a data frame. In some circumstances, It needs special methods for "[" and "[<-" and rbind() (but not cbind()). Then I found this in the cbind()/rbind() man page: The method dispatching is _not_ done via 'UseMethod()', but by C-internal dispatching. Therefore, there is no need for, e.g., 'rbind.default'.

Negative argument for head() and tail()
Dear R developers, I'm a former APL programmer. In that language, the "take" (up arrow) and "drop" (down arrow) operators were extensively used to, well, take and drop elements of vectors. Functions head() and tail() are equivalents in R for the "take" operator, but nothing seems to mimic the "drop" operator. I think it would be useful. For

Suggested tidying up
Package grDevices has a function cm() to convert from inches to centimeters. Its definition is: cm <- function(x) 2.54*x As far as I can tell, the function is not used anywhere in the R sources (I grepped for "cm(", "cm)" and ", cm".) I did not check for all packages on CRAN, though. May I propose to remove this apparently useless function from the sources? [I

Avoid Sweave from stopping on errors
Hi all, Is there an option in Sweave to avoid it from stopping on a code chunk with an error? (I purposefully want to include code with an error in class notes.) I suspect the answer is "no" and that I will be pointed to options("error"). That'd be fine, but which error parameter will just "do nothing" in case of an error? Thanks in advance! -- Vincent

Small encoding question
Dear developeRs, Compilation of the latest version (0.9-5) of my actuar package fails with r-release MacOS_X ix86 on CRAN; see http://www.R-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-macosx-ix86/actuar-00check.html All errors come from accented letters in comments in latin-1 encoded files (except hierarc.R which is in UTF-8, my bad). Encoding is declared as latin-1 in DESCRIPTION. The package

Out of bounds negative index
Hi, From the R Language Definition, Section 3.4.1: "If i is positive and exceeds length(x) then the corresponding selection is NA. A negative out of bounds value for i causes an error." (This is also mentioned in S Programming, footnote of page 24.) Can someone please provide an example triggering the error? Looking in src/main/subscript.c I could not find exception handling for

Building the call of an arbitrary function
Hy all, Is there a direct way to build the complete function call of an arbitrary function? Here's what I want to do. A function will build a function which will itself call a probability density function for some law given in argument to the first function: > f("gamma", 1000) will return, say, function(x, shape, rate, scale = 1/rate) dgamma(x + 1000, shape, rate,

Patch to allow negative argument in head() and tail()
Dear developeRs (and other abuseRs ;-), I would like to contribute a patch against functions head() and tail() of package utils to allow for a negative 'n' argument. This allows to extract all but the first/last 'n' elements/rows/lines of an object, similar to the "drop" operator of APL. [1] I put the patched head.R and head.Rd files, along with diff files in
