similar to: Rwinst.exe problems

I just downloaded the binaries for the released 1.2.0 for Windows (from Guido Masarotti's site). In using the rwinst.exe installer, I noted two significant problems. First, the installer seems extraordinarily slow compared to the the 1.1.1 installer. It took almost 20 minutes to perform a full base extraction from binaries to installation (all base pages, html help, windows help, pdf

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

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?

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

1) rwinst Brian Ripley has provided me a new version of 'rwinst.exe' which should solve the signaled problem (installing in the root of the hard-disk). It should be available tomorrow from Wien (and in few days from the other mirrors). 2) gif There was some problems in rw0641. It used to work before and it should work again in rw0642 (at least, it does on my system). So, please, if you

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 <-

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

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. Is this

I'm running R 1.5.1 under Windows XP Pro. I haven't paid too much attention to the way R starts up until now. I've noticed that on all my Windows XP systems, Rgui.exe starts "maximized" despite having the shortcut properties set for it to run in a "normal" window. I've tried resizing the windows (I use MDI sessions) and then saving the workspace, but the

I'm in the final week of teaching a course to beginners using R and S-Plus. Since I forbade the students from using the "point-and-click" interface in S-Plus, they've become reasonably proficient at using the command line in both programs. Students really like the speed and ease-of-use of R for the vast majority of their projects. I think they'd switch to R completely

I just downloaded version 1.0.0 and several binary libraries (VR, rpart, norm, stataread) - WinNT version. I then converted a file from Stata 6.0 to R format by using the stataread library. The file converts perfectly and I was able to use the VR function lda on the dataframe without difficulty. I then tried to use the same dataframe with RPART. The model statement:

I'm running a four-group, 15-variable discriminant analysis using the MASS function lda(). Discriminant functions 1 and 2 explain about 93% of the variance. I would like to plot the group scatters in a single scatterplot, identify each group's centroid, and encircle the group scatter with a 90% bivariate confidence ellipse. I can do this for each group on a separate plot, but I

Hi, I've just downloaded rwinst.exe and ran the installer. Afterwhich I double-clicked the Rgui icon.

I've been using the package rpart with R 1.3.0 for Windows to produce simple classification trees for some measurement data from paleontological specimens. Both the rpart documentation and the output confirm that the program produces splits on continuous data that leave "holes" in the data. It is probably of little practical importance, but is there a reason why the binary
