Rinst.exe question
Hi all,
I'm using R0.99a on WinNT4. I downloaded a bunch of packages and tried
using Rinst.exe to install them. For whatever reason, Rinst.exe does not
find all the packages I downloaded. I put all files in the same temp
directory, but Rinst only finds some of them. I have no problem installing
the rest with WinZip, but if Rinst works it would be much easier (don't have
to run WinZip

Rwinst.exe problems
I've heard from several users who report no difficulties using the
Rwinst.exe installer for the released version of 1.2.0. I've blown away
all traces of 1.2.0 on my system and have re-downloaded all 10 zip files
and the installer on both my NT and Win2K boxes. The memory-overwrite
error persists on both systems, suggesting that there is some
incompatibility between the 1.2.0

Re: R 0.90.0 for Windows rwinst fails (for me) and workaround
hi-
I downloaded r 0.90.0 for windows and ran rwinst.exe and the base package would not install for me. I had to unzip
rw0900b1.zip and r20900b2.zip manually and then do the rest of install with rwinst. Is this due to b being replaced
by b1 and b2?

R 0.64.2 for Windows 95/NT
I installed R 0.64.2 using "rwinst.exe" on a Windows 95 machine. The zip
files and rwinst.exe were stored in a directory "rtmp" and I wanted R to
be installed in "r0642" (by setting c:\rtmp for source directory and c:\
for install directory). After the installation was completed the main
program was in r0642 whereas all the documentation in c:\rtmp\r0642.

Comments on Win95 R Distribution (PR#527)
Here are some comments generated by a new R user based on
initial experiences with the tool.
On-line help for tapply:
The following appears "for to each (non-empty) group of

Windows: updating to R 1.2.2
Forgive me, but while I find the documentation for initially installing R
to be clear, I'm not so happy about updating.
I want to update from R 1.2.1 to R 1.2.2 (mainly so I can get the debugged
version of pictex() ).
Now I have downloaded the base zip files, say to Z:\Program Files and my
existing installation of R 1.2.1 is sitting in
Z:\Program Files\rw1021.

New version of chron
A new version of the chron add-on package is now available from CRAN.
The previous version introduced code to ensure that chron would work
correctly in the 21st century. Of course, the main issue is how to deal

Rcmd ?
Hi,
I tried running Rcmd.exe to no avail. It doesn't even start because it tries
to read some memory address that NT says it can't and terminate.
I tried downloading and reinstalling rw1020sp.zip with the installer twice
just in case it got corrupted somehow in transport but it resulted in the
same problem.
What should I do?

How to use install.packages()
Dear R-friends,
As the binary windows version of R being distributed,
what is the correct way to install contributed packages without
using winst.exe as before?
The answer in "R for Windows FAQ" says:
"You can install pre-compiled packages either from CRAN
or from a local .zip file by using install.packages: see its help page."

how to install packages
Dear All,
I am trying to fiugre out how install packages on the base system. The
"FAQ" tells me that more details can be obtained by typing
"help(install.packages)", but my R system gives me an error message when
I did that. I also tried "help(PACKAGES)", "help(install.packages())",
but none worked. Anybody can help? I am running R 1.1.1 on WinNT 4.

Preview of an alternative R for Windows installer
I have built a version of the current 1.2.2 patched version of R using
Inno Setup2 (http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.htm). (That toolkit is
open source (in Delphi) and was fairly easy to tame. Full details are
in the R-patched sources.) This gives a single ~10Mb file, at
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/SetupR.exe
The idea is that it should look very like a Windows 2000-style install,

rw1020 Rcmd INSTALL path\ deletes rw1020\library\* (PR#789)
The trailing backslash seems to be the culprit.
After looking at rw1020\bin\INSTALL, I noticed
$pkg =~ s/\/$//;
which I assume is to strip the trailing slash from a package name
before obtaining the package name and cleaning out its directory
I added
$pkg =~ s/\\$//;
immediately after this line. Rerunning
Rcmd INSTALL C:\rw1011\src\library\bqtl\
with that change seemed to work OK
