Summary: read.table on Mac OS X, CARBON vs. DARWIN
Thanks a lot, James!!
The problem is fixed. On the version 1.4.0 Mac/darwin (the latest
available version for this system) the function read.table (which is
called from read.delim etc., too) has the bug you explained.
Inserting the row
nlines <- nlines+1
after
lines <- c(lines, line)
removes this bug.

emacs, Mac OS X, R
Hi!
Since August I am using emacs on my Macintosh to edit the R objects. I
have installed R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5 and GNU Emacs 21.2.1. However
there are some issues I haven't resolved:
a) switch the caps lock key to the meta key (and when this is not
possible, switch the alt/option key to the meta). The switch should
work only within emacs!
b) having different colors for the code,

export from R to MySQL
Hi R user!
What is the fastest way to export a large matrix or vector to a MySQL
database? The use of data.frame() and dbWriteTable() makes the process
slow, so is there any <direct> alternative?

how to modify variables of another frame (but not global)
Hello!
Maybe "frame" is not the right term in this context.
I explain my problem by example code:
fun2 <- function(objName, add) {
## the object "objName" should be increased by "add",
## but the evaluation should be done in the calling function (here:
fun1)
## ...... what's the right code??
}
fun1 <- function() {
x <- 1

problems with ESS & R ...
Hi!
I have R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5, GNU Emacs 21.2.1 and ESS 5.2.3.
I installed today the ESS by not changing ess-site.el, but creating
.emacs in $home with the single line:
$ cat ~/.emacs
(load "/usr/local/lib/ess-5.2.3/lisp/ess-site")
If I start now emacs and then R (with M-x R) then I get:

storing large data.frame's
I am new on R, so I have a maybe naive question:
if I have many large data.frames and I use only one or two per session,
what's the best way?
If all are stored in the actual .Rdata, the system gets slow.
On the other hand, I wouldn't like to make a separate package for the
data.
Should I save it with save() and then remove it with rm() ?
Could I reload it then?
Thanks for suggestions

overlapping a plot with an external image
It's possible to overlap an external image (jpg or pdf)
with a plot generated with R?
Specifying the image as the background
of the plot might not be possible...
any idea?

building packages with NAMESPACE
hi!
I tried to build a very simple package with NAMESPACE file,
such that datasets are loaded only dynamically.
> a2 <- function(x=a1) x+4
> a1 <- 1:10
> package.skeleton("aaa", list=c("a1", "a2"))
Then I modified the help files and added the file NAMESPACE with these
2 lines:
useDynLib(aaa)
export(a1, a2)
Then "R CMD BUILD aaa" works

plot.table on R 1.9.1
Hello!
What is wrong on my system?
I have downloaded today R 1.9.1 on my PC with Windows.
plot.table isn't available in package <base> and neither in package <graphics> (as suggested after ?plot.table).
Kind regards

problem with Rcmd check and fortran95, makefile
Hi all,
I have Win XP and R 2.3.1 on my notebook. I would like to write a package which includes some Fortran 95 code. Interestingly, if I compile and link the simple file test90.f90 directly with
g95 -c test90.f90
g95 -shared -o test90.dll test90.o
then PE Viewer ( a dll viewer) shows me the right functions in the export table, hence I can use the dll in R. But as it should become part of a

data.frame's and [2, c(T, F)] in R 2.6.0
In R prior to 2.6.0 with matrizes as well as with data.frames it is
possible to do:
a[2, c(TRUE, FALSE)]
In R 2.6.0 the mixed indexing works only for matrizes. Is this the
intention, a bug, or did I get something wrong?
Best regards

strange behaviour of memory management
Hi all!
My system: R 2.1.1, Mac OS X 10.4.2.
I have a very memory-consuming job for R, consisting of a function
calling some other functions, working often with matrices of size
100.000 x 300. If I call the job directly after starting R the job
takes overall 40min, however only 7min of process time. I assume the
large difference is through memory-handling which doesn't count as

packages & data-sets
It's possible to create a package with functions and data,
from which the use
library(pkg-name)
"attaches" not only the functions, but also the data?
I want avoid to use
data(dataset, package="name")
because this makes a global copy of the data-set ...
Anyone could help me?

Place a graphic into an R-plot
I have a graphic image in a file (say a *.jpeg or *.png file) and want to
put it into a plot. I have segmented the plot area by means of the layout
function and successfully plotted my data in the appropriate segments. I
cannot find how to put my graphic image onto the same plot. Searching the
archives has shed little light on my challenge.
Many thanks in anticipation.

library() with v. 1.5.0 for Mac OS X Carbon
I am having trouble with the library function of R Version 1.5.0 for Mac
OS X Carbon when I try to load libraries that did not come with the R
installation. For example, I put the Biobase library from
bioconductor.org in the 'library' folder. R cannot find it, even though
it can find the pre-installed libraries:

Lattice graphics on Mac OS X
Hi, everybody.
I just started using R on Mac OS X. I'm trying both of Carbon and
Darwin version. I used to use S-PLUS on Linux and want to use splom to
do multi-plot.
I looked at both Carbon and Darwin version, but Carbon version doesn't
seem to have Lattice library. I downloaded the binary for Darwin
version. I have XDarwin/OroborOSX installed on my Mac's (G4 Powerbook
