1. This query belongs in r-help, not in r-devel 2. Pity about your shift key... 3. The function you need is deparse() rather than as.character(): > fff <- function(x) { + x*x + } > deparse(body(fff)) [1] "{" "x * x" "}" > 4. There is a reason why as.character works this way. It transforms to character from a more fundamental representation of

The following becomes more and more a topic for an R mailing list, possibly R-devel.

I do not know if this has been reported already (I searched the headers of the recent messages to r-devel) It seems that 'example' in R 2.11.0 has a problem when the help file does not contain any example.

I have problems with Rpad and R 2.10.0 (Windows XP and Windows 7, browser is Firefox) Just starting Rpad by library(Rpad) Rpad() opens the browser and displays the .html files and the .Rpad files in my home directory, but these files do not have links and are not clickable. Doing the same in R 2.9.2 gives clickable links in the browser. Furthermore, in both cases an empty graphics window

In some languages there is a function gensym() which returns a new unique name (in the current environment). This is quite helpful when one has to do temporary assignments.

Today we uploaded a new release of the R (D)COM server for Windows to CRAN. It is release 1.35 The software is much more stable, and there are quite a few improvements. Excerpts from the NEWS file: RServerManager has been added. This provides a repository for R COM servers. See the samples and the additional documentation Partial rewrite of the code for SetSymbol() and GetSymbol(). Now

It would be convenient to have something like Rgui runfist="myfunction()" in Windows. The reason: AFAIK Rgui does not accept piped input (RGui < myfile.R does not seem to work). A solution could be to put a few fuctions in Rprofile and then give the name for one of these functions to be executed at startup as a command line parameter to Rgui. Can something like this be done? --
