Dear all, I am getting an R CMD check warning about the PDF manual. I am having a hard time finding out what is wrong, here is the log of the Rd2pdf call. The full check (and other) log is at https://api.travis-ci.org/jobs/46373922/log.txt?deansi=true if anybody is interested, and the package itself is here: https://github.com/metacran/r-builder/tree/bintex/rbuildertest Thanks, Best, Gabor

I can't get Emacs to automatically do syntax highlighting of Sweave files. I have followed Friedrich's suggestion for code to insert into my .emacs file. The complete section from my .emacs file is given below. When I load a *.Snw file, font is white until I press M-x, then the first code and document chunks get highlighted, but not the rest of the file. Latex and Noweb menus are

Dear list, I have tried to setup my Xemacs for use with Sweave, which I indend to learn. I have followed the instructions in the Sweave FAQ, that is to say, I put (defun Rnw-mode () (require 'ess-noweb) (noweb-mode) (if (fboundp 'R-mode) (setq noweb-default-code-mode 'R-mode))) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode)) (add-to-list

Hi, When writing formulae in Rd files I use \leq to get a less-than-or-equal-to sign, as this is what the LaTeX references I consulted suggested. This works correctly for the PDF output (Rcmd Rd2dvi.sh --pdf), however when the Rd file is converted to text or html this command is converted to "<=q". A workaround is to use \le instead of \leq which works with my LaTeX distribution

Hallo! Trying to configure Xemacs to work with .snw files on windows 2000. Tried to do it how it is described in the FAQ for Sweaves. When starting xemacs with and Snw file *ESS* buffer contains hundrets of lines and the few last ones. (ess-loop-timeout . 500000) (inferior-ess-primary-prompt . ^) (inferior-ess-secondary-prompt . ^) (comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields . t)

Dear List, I am trying to become more familiar with Sweave at the moment, beacuse I am convinced that it will eventually make my life easier. However, I have not found anything relevant in the mail archives about the following problem. Both the article in R-News and the Sweave FAQ suggest that Emacs would be a great development environment for working with Sweave. So far, it doesn't seem to

I?m in the process of preparing a package for CRAN. The package is called ?exportR? and since it really just consists of one function, I found it natural to call it ?exportR? too. The function returns a function that does the actual job, but it is set up to work in different ways, depending on the arguments given to its creator. In short: library( exportR ) exporter <- exportR( the, arguments

'Writing R Extensions' tells you that $ needs to be escaped in Rd files outside \code and similar. So I was surprised to find that ca 80 CRAN packages have constructions like (from ISwR) \item{\code{folate}}{ a numeric vector, folate concentration ($\mu$g/l). } This does not render sensibly in non-latex conversions, and it is what we have \eqn{} for. That $ needs to be

I am writing course notes in LaTeX. In the part where I am describing model-fitting functions in R I want to use a ~ character inline. If I am displaying an example of R code in its own environment I use the alltt environment, which protects the ~ character. I have forgotten how to protect the ~ when I am writing something like The operator `~' is used to define a model formula in \R.

I've got a package I would like to send out for testing and have noticed a "problem" with the \tabular portion of the help "compiler" the code for inserting vertical lines, in the tabular environment, causes the build to choke, but not the check command.

Hello and sorry for necro posting xD this is the only thread I found about stalker. I really want this game to run. I've tried to run it under ubuntu but when I boot it ti makes xengine to crash... I've tried to follow the guide posted but i've got none of the packages from the line #yum install etc... how can I fix it? plz

Dear list, I've tried several times to wrap my head around the Design library, without much success. It does some really nice things, but I'm often uncomfortable because I don't understand exactly what it's doing. Anyway, one thing I really like is the latex.ols() function, which converts an R linear model formula to a LaTeX equation. So, I started writing a latex.lm() function

Full_Name: Robin Hankin Version: 2.4.0 RC OS: MacOSX 10.4.7 Submission from: (NULL) (139.166.242.29) The first cut line described in Trig.Rd for asin() is incorrect in the ascii version of the manpage. The Rd file reads: For \code{asin()} and \code{acos()}, there are two cuts, both along the real axis: \eqn{\left(-\infty, -1\right]}{\(-Inf, 1\]} and Note the inconsistency between the

I have constructed the function mml2 (below) based on the likelihood function described in the minimal latex I have pasted below for anyone who wants to look at it. This function finds parameter estimates for a basic Rasch (IRT) model. Using the function without the gradient, using either nlminb or optim returns the correct parameter estimates and, in the case of optim, the correct standard

I'm not sure who is responsible for quantile(), but I assume they read this list. Ivan Frohne and I have produced a revision of the quantile.default() function which enables the computation of alternative sample quantile definitions. The code and .Rd file are attached. This enables the user to produce quantiles that are equivalent to those in various statistics package. There is a type

Hi, I am doing a small experiment to test if I can use MathJax ( official site: http://www.mathjax.org ) in R's html help pages (i.e. options(help_type='html')) and it seems working with some minor modifications. The screenshot (rendered by Firefox 4.0 beta and with STIX fonts) of the help page in html format with MathJax enabled is at the following url:

Hola! I have the following in a .Rd file: \eqn{\mbox{coef} = c(\mbox{coef}[1],\ldots, \mbox{coef}[n]) } {coef = c(coef[1], coef[2], \dots, coef[n])} However, both arguments come out in the latex file! Whats happening? Kjetil Halvorsen

Dear all, I'm using xtable package in order to produce Latex table. There is a way to specify not only the alignment but also the width of table colums?? Thanks for your attention.
