For a project I''m working on I''m hoping to be able to have both discussion and announce-only e-mail lists.

Someone else just mentioned that they had trouble with RMagick on OS X (Intel, don''t really know if my advice will help) so I decided to post a HOWTO to the list. I

Hi I am really sorry for this probably quite simple question. I am new to R, and I am running a pipeline that has already been made. All I have to do is give the paths for different folders, where the pipeline can find the files with my data. But every time I try to run the pipeline it returns with the message, that it cannot find the file. And I really don't know why. I have found the path

Hello all fellow Mac OS X Railers. I''m just setting up a new MacBook from scratch.
