Compilation of R under Mandrake Linux 6.1 (helios)
I've just installed Mandrake Linux, then compiled R-0.65.1 .
Whether because I omitted some necessary items when I selected
software for installion, or because they anyway needed to be
loaded afterwards, I found it necessary to load the following
packages in order to compile R-0.65.1
pgcc-g77-1.1.3-3mdk.i586.rpm (Fortran g77 compiler)
XFree66-devel-3.3.5-3mdk.i586.rpm (X.h etc

mapping of colornames into hsv?
I couldn't find this in online help or the archives:
Is there any R function or object giving the mapping of the colornames as
given by colors() into the hsv() model?

possible BUG with as.data.frame() and/or [.data.frame
Here is a possible BUG with as.data.frame() and/or [.data.frame which broke
Michael Lapsleys RODBC-Code.
Can anyone confirm it is a bug or a 'feature' of the prototype?
tablename <- "abc"
a <- as.data.frame(cbind("abc", 1:3))
b <- as.data.frame(cbind(tablename, 1:3))
# ok

Manual: writing R Extensions (PR#380)
-- Happy holidays! --
Dear R Development Core Team,
I want to thank you *very much* for the new "Writing R Extensions" manual
published with RW0.901 and hope this is the right place to report some
possible typos.
page 17, example given in the middle of the page, I think it should read
REAL(version) = 3.0;

astonishing memory phenomenon
I have a question concerning memory.
I understood that R takes a fixed amount of memory at startup (which I can
influence with --vsize --nsize) and that gc() shows the memory still free of
the total memory reserved for R.
However, if I create a long vector of character data, gc() only seem to
reflect the space needed for a vector of pointers to char, the space used
for the character data itself

some related problems
I just tried to batch-start rgui.exe (not rterm.exe) in a way, that it
read.table()s data from a file with changing filename. As I understand no
command line parameters are available for that, so instead I tried to pass
the filename to an approbriate .RProfile, which works roughly, BUT
## this is my %R_USER%\.RProfile

Suggestion for comments in data files (i.e. read.table)
I realise that there is an existing system for documenting datasets
but what I would like is to be able to whack a few lines of commentary
at the top of a file which contains data -- not full documentation but
just an outline for myself to remind me of what I was doing or what
settings I was using, etc.
I was thinking that the read.table() function might be extended to
support an option allowing

SQL-Interface
Can anyone give advice how to interactively exchange data between R and
SQL-Databases like DB2, ORACLE, MS-SQL-Server ?
If the answer is: 'currently not', this would be information for me as well.
I will summarize to the list.
Best regards

read.table problems
Yesterday I asked for help about read.table with a CSV file. I
received the following help. As always many thanks for the prompt

all spaces.

Do you have spaces before the commas in your file?

StatDataML
Hi,
we have a first draft of R functions reading/writing data to XML files
including a rather general DTD ... which borrows heavily from the data
types of a certain programming language :-)
The basic idea is to create an XML standard for data exchange,
together with import/export functions for as many applications as
possible. We here will need R, Matlab & Octave for our research
program,

RSPerl...
Duncan -
(but sent to R-devel, for any other thoughts?)
How do you envision RSPerl being used? Without having seen the
details, I can think of playing with strings; is there a preferred
incantation for stringification of R objects (serialization)?
(actually, the main problem I'm having is that I know how I want to code
