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

I have re-built all the compiled packages for R 1.2.0 for Windows, and the set available in CRAN/bin/windows/contrib are now for rw1020. If you are upgrading to rw1020, please replace all the compiled packages you have downloaded by ones from this set. There a few packages available for the first time: RMySQL mlbench netCDF and a few that are not yet running on 1.2.0 on any platform hdf5

Indeed, there is no file named "dlltool" anywhere around here! So, at last I am beginning to suspect that my collection of tools is incomplete. What I have got is "rw1020sp.zip" and "http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/tools.zip". These are properly istalled, I think. readme.packages says "If your package has no C nor Fortran nor C++ sources, see `Simple

A disturbing behaviour of R: an import of data using RODBC library (Windows 98, R 1.1.1) recognizes accented characters in variables names but these can't be manipulated further.

Guido has fixed Rterm hanging on Windows 2000 in interactive and --ess modes. The problem was that 'PulseEvent' doesn't work under 2000 as documented (and I can find nothing about this in MicroSoft's Knowledge Base except that it is known to happen under a debugger). The cross-compiled pre-release at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre now incoporates the fix, and we

For many scientific applications one is really dealing with ASCII characters and LC_COLLATE="C", even if the user is running in non-C locales. What robust approaches (if any?) are available to write code that sorts in a locale-independent way? The Note in ?Sys.setlocale is not overly optimistic about setting the locale within a session.

Dear R users, this is a question for R version 1.2.0 under Windows NT 4.0, regarding the documentation of ones own functions. I have ceated a private library for my functions, which works all very well, apart from that I am not able to create appropriate help files. For illustration, here is a simple example of where I'm stuck: > # first, create a simple function f1: > f1 <-

I'm a newbie to WINE. I'm running WINE 0.0.20050211-1 with kernel 2.6.10 and the Debian distribution. I CD to /cdrom and issue the command wine install.exe and the Quicken 2000 install starts. I immediately get a message from Quicken that there is insufficient temp space to perform the install. I have no clue about how to proceed. If someone has a HOWTO to get Quicken 2000 working, that

I have a file which contains non-ASCII characters (umlauts, accented characters, etc.) both in its filename as well as its content. The only way I have been able to see these characters is inside vim, where they are displayed correctly no matter what I have LANG set to. My default LANG is en_US.utf8, but I have tried de_DE.utf8, de_DE.iso88591, and various others. In the output of a

Hello! I tried to build the RMySQL package by myself on an NT machine. I have a NT machine with cygwin compiler and activestate Perl installed on it.

Having gotten the latest CVS to build, I'm trying to get IE working again (yeah, yeah, I know...) I can get it to load, but then it doesn't seem to be able to make any network connections. I can't browse anything. It doesn't matter whether I use ip addresses or dns names. This was working on previous versions, but I can't quite figure out what changes broke this. Any help or

Ok, one last try. R1.2.0, WinNT 4.0: [R is installed in: R_HOME=D:\Programme\R\rw1020] Can anyone give a hint what the following error message (when running Rcmd INSTALL) means and what to do about it? cd D:\Programme\R\rw1020\src\library D:\Programme\R\rw1020\bin\rcmd install testfunctions make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/d/Programme/R/rw1020/src/gnuwin32' dlltool -k --as as --dllname

Hello I am trying to use wine to run a windows 98/95 apply : Visual Page , an html editor with drag and drop feature. First I installed Winex 3.3.1 on my fc3 linux box. I mount on /mnt/dos_backup, a backup on the windows partition on ext3 filesystem where I can write. I try to run the executable with : [jp@mach ~]$ wine /mnt/dos_backup/Program\ Files/VisualPage/Vpage.exe and first I get this

It is embarrassing, but I just can't get "Rcmd INSTALL" to work. I'm using R1.2.0 under Windows NT4.0, and what I do is open a commands window (cmd.exe) in directory "D:\", and then try the following: ----- REM this is how my PATH is set: D:\>set path = %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\system32\nls\DEUTSC H;d:\PROGRA~1\pfe;

I am trying to restart on R after 2 months stop. Start with previously functioning procedure: "ch<-odbcConnect("dBase Files")" get "Warning message: ODBC connection failed in: odbcConnect("dBase Files") " I have tried unsuccessfully different working directories. The only change I see is that I am working with a new login account on the same machine.

I almost didn't believe in it anymore, but Rcmd INSTALL finally is working for me! Thanks to all who helped on this, especially to Guido Masarotto, Brian Ripley, John Fox, Peter Dalgaard, Uwe Ligges. Anyway, I do think the documentation is a bit confusing here (at least for me, I don't know if others have felt the same). It might be a good idea to add the essence of Brians and Guidos
