similar to: R-gnome

Hi! I've been able to configure and make R (1,4,0 linux) except for the gnome support. I've checked all packages and libs mentioned in R-admin.pdf (and by Luke Tierny) to make sure that I have them and even using the following: ./configure --with-gnome --with-gnome-includes=/opt/gnome/include --with-gnome-libs=/opt/gnome/lib --with-libglade-config=opt/gnome/lib I still get: R is now

Hi! Is there any way of having a greyed ("ghosted") text (i.e, 2006) in the background of a plot? I'm making a dynamic plot and would like to show the year of each time step as a big greyed text in the background. (the idea comes from Hans Rosling video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4237353244338529080&sourceid=searchfeed ) Thanks Agus -- Dr. Agustin Lobo Institut

Hi! Given a vector (or a factor within a df),i.e. v1 <- c(1,1,1,2,3,4,1,10,3) and a dictionary cbind(c(1,2,3),c(1001,1002,1003)) is there a function (on the same line than recode() in car) to get v2 as c(1001,1001,1001,1002,1003,4,1001,10,1003) ? I'm using myself a function based on match() since long ago (I think that thanks to advice by Prof. B. Ripley), but would like to know if there

Hi! Is it possible to set a file to which both commands and output would get automatically saved? I've tried with sink(), but only get the output. I mean something like a combined history and sink, as you get with File/Save to File.. in the windows GUI. Tis is done with diary filename in Matlab, and you can state diary on and diary off to control what is being saved to the file. Thanks Agus

Is there an specific function to eliminate blank space within strings?

Hi! Is not there an standard R function to retrieve the day of the year (since 1st Jan of the same year)? I know I can make my own using julian, but find it weird that having days(), months() etc doy() does not exist as an standard function. Also, is the following not a bit inconsistent? > a <- chron("20100506",format="ymd") > a [1] 100506 > years(a) [1] 2010

Which is the proper way to rename a factor? If I do: test$Parc[test$Parc=="Ol?rdola"]<-"Ol?rdola" R complains that Warning message: invalid factor level, NAs generated in: `[<-.factor`(`*tmp*`, test$Parc == "Ol?rdola", value = "Ol?rdola") Thanks Agus -- Dr. Agustin Lobo Institut de Ciencies de la Terra "Jaume Almera" (CSIC) LLuis Sole

I've set layout(matrix(c(1,3,2,4),ncol=2)) and par(mar=c(0, 4, 4, 0) + 0.0) and par(mar=c(0, 0, 4, 3) + 0.0) for the upper-left and upper-right plots, but still get an space between both plots, is there any way to completely eliminate that space?

Hi! If I'm plotting 2 variables with the same units (i.e. wing length of 2 species), how can I force that X and Y axes have the same size for length unit? For example, if X ranges from 0 to 10 and Y ranges from 10 to 30, I want Y axis to be twice as long as X axis. I know I can just put xlim and ylim from 0 to 30, i.e., plot(runif(10,0,10),runif(10,10,30),xlim=c(0,30),ylim=c(0,30)) but this

I've found that while cutree() and rect.hclust() make the same classes for a given height in the dendrogram, the actual labeling of the classes is different. For example, both produce the same 4 classes but class 1 according to cutree() is class 4 according to rect.hclust(). Would it be possible that future versions provide the same labeling? rect.hclust() is useful to display the classes

Hi! I'm confused by this: > as.numeric(as.POSIXct(518400,origin="2001-01-01")) [1] 978822000 I guess the problem is that as.numeric() assumes a different origin, but cannot find any default origin. How can I get back the seconds from the POSIXct format? In other words, which the inverse function of as.POSIXct()? I've tried as.numeric and unclass() using a origin=

By Ctr-moving the cursor over a point in an iplot() scatterplot (package iplots) it is possible to check the exact x,y coordinates of a given point. Is it possible to check a text label for that point as well? (i.e., the same info that would get printed on the graphic using text(x,y, labels=v) or with identify(x,y,labels), but I do not want to get the labels permanently plotted on the graphic)

Dear R-users and R-developpers, I've not been able to find 3d graphics in R, like Splus spin() or brush(). Are there any that I've missed and/or is anybody working on implementing these type of functions?
