I use AfterStep on Linux. I made an R.xpm file (attached) and put this icon in the "wharf". To invoke R I click on the R icon. I did not find an offical R.xpm, and so I am submitting this one for your collective consideration.... The idea behind the icon is that it looks like a scatterplot, which is "statistical". My main beefs with my R.xpm are that it doesn't have a

Dear Rs, quite often in I had segmentation faults of the following kind: Error in brf.infobase(nn, Pc, knams = knams, plot = plot, dev = dev, quiet = quiet, : unused argument(s) (df ...)

Dear all, after building the R-1.1.1 from source on our alpha everything seems to work, but locfit still hangs... I installed locfit with install.packages(...), the installation process went fine, but calling locfit() blocks the R environment. Has anybody got an idea howto get to the roots of this problem? Thanks M. Eger -- +------------------------------------------------------- | Marcus

I just copy parts of my correspondence with the author of Locfit: >>Dear Mr <...>, >>I have tried to apply locfit to a three dimensional data set for density >>estimation. >>The algorithm seems to work well but when I want to plot the result, the >>routine "levelplot" is missing. >>This is not the case in 2-dimensional fitting. >>I=B4d be

Dear R'ers, when I e.g. install the integrate2.2-2 package under R1.1.1 (debian2.2) atlas is linked into the library: Installing package `integrate' ... libs gcc -shared -lc -shared -o /usr/lib/R/library/integrate/libs/integrate.so adapt.o adapt_callback.o bsrl.o flfm.o nxprt.o symrl.o wht.o -L/usr/local/lib -lf77blas -lcblas -latlas -lg2c -lm -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2

Dear all, is there an easy way to know at which position in the source code browser() (or stop()) was called? This seems to be important for me when I try to debug a program (e.g. using options(error=quote(dump.frames()))) traceback() returns some information, but I miss something like a line number, e.g. "stopped at line 999 in foo.R".

Hello - any suggestions?! "fun" <- function (a1,a2,a3) { ... x<-rnorm(50) a<-locfit(~x) ... } does not work, (Error: Object "x" not found) but x<<-as.matrix(mm[Pc+1]) instead, does!

Hi, [some background] I have a dataset which describes a number of subjects doing a "scientific discovery". That is, they have to discover the rules underlying a particular domain. To do so, they have to set the levels of 5 variables which leads to a certain outcome. To identify what kind of "experiments" the subjects did, I want to combine these levels into one variable
