similar to: Small Functions for Writing HTML Files

Hello Everyone, First, I'd like to appologize for the e-mail confirmation that was attached to my last message. It was entirely unintentional. I've attached a set of R files that make writing HTML reports very easy. I basically combined the HTML functions I wrote previously, David Dahl's xtable from CRAN, and then wrote a series of wrapper functions to automagically write the

Hi, Does anyone know how to manually configure the number of digits printed out from xtable()? For example, I'm exporting a data frame through xtable() into a LaTeX table, I only have two columns in the data frame so by default I only get two decimal places. But I'd like at least 5 decimal places. I had a look at ?xtable() but can't seem to find an example. Cheers, Kevin

Hey all, I just found Bryan Helmkamp''s (of webrat fame) slides on a presentation he did at GoRuCo 2008: http://www.brynary.com/2008/4/26/story-driven-development-slides-posted On slides 21-24 he talks about writing good stories and shows gives two examples.. the way not to do it and the way to do it. You can also see the video of the presentation at confreaks

Hi Everyone, This is a small release that fixes a little bug, some of the documentation, and adds the new RedirectHandler code and a @redirect@ call for the mongrel.conf files. It''s fresh so don''t rely on it. Everyone should upgrade with the usual *gem update* command (which tells you it''s "Upgrading...") and tell me how it works. This release fixes: * The

Hello I want to batch job the calculation of many GLM-models, extract some values and store them in a file. Almost everything in the script below works (read file, extract values and write them to file) except I fail in indexing the GLM with the modelstructure it should run. Running GLM's conventionally is no problem. Conventionally a GLM is calculated as:

Calling All Mongrel Minions! I wanna have some fun and would like this as a Christmas present. The site http://www.workingwithrails.com/ has this lame popularity system that''s kind of irking some of the main Ruby contributors. I think it''s kind of funny, but would like to demonstrate what an army of motivated people can do to these kinds of popularity contests. So, as a

Hi Folks, I''m sure tons of people are gonna ruin a whole drawer of their best panties over this one. Rick Olson worked on the mongrel_upload_progress gem, documentation and examples and has almost everything you need to do progress tracked file uploads using just Mongrel to handle the upload. This means that Rails (or any other framework) isn''t blocked while the upload

The survexp function can fail when called from another function. The "why" of this has me baffled, however. Here is a simple test case, using a very stripped down version of survexp: survexp.test <- function(formula, data, weights, subset, na.action, rmap, times, cohort=TRUE, conditional=FALSE, ratetable=survexp.us, scale=1, npoints, se.fit,

Hi, Thanks Zed - this is very interesting. One item in particular caught my eye: Does anyone on this list have any comments or validation that Rails 1.2.1 is 2-4 times as slow as Rails 1.1.6? Topfunky provided a link that purports what looks like really horrible performance and memory characteristics for Rails 1.2.1, even v. 1.1.6:

Hi Everyone, I have a small pre-release for Mongrel that will eventually be the 0.3.13.3 release, but it needs some quick testing before I make it official. There''s a bug for only some folks and I need to find out what''s causing it. The bug is that the object_id method gets the signature: def object_id(param) end Which is incredibly evil. Normally this does nothing to

I''m proud to announce the official Mongrel certification program: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/certified.html Move quick, seats are filling fast for the RubyConf courses. -- Zed A. Shaw http://www.zedshaw.com/ http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/ http://www.lingr.com/room/3yXhqKbfPy8 -- Come get help.

Hi, I kept getting a very weird question about Mongrel (http://mongrel.rubyforge.org) and SCGI that I think really needs to be cleared up: ** Mongrel is not SCGI and will never need, use, require, or interact with SCGI (unless someone wants to write the handler for it). ** For some reason people have been under the impression that Mongrel actually uses or interacts with my other project SCGI

Hi ! My mongrel just starting spitting out these nice lines: The error occured while evaluating nil.accept. TELL ZED HE''S A MORON. !!!!!! UNHANDLED EXCEPTION! You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! Not sure what happened or why, but just FYI: Zed, you are a moron :-) Happy holidays! Gitte Wange

In a real example I was trying to remove the class from the result of table, just because it was to be used as a building block for other things and a simple integer vector seemed likely to be most efficient. I'm puzzled as to why unclass doesn't work. > zed <- table(1:5) > class(zed) [1] "table" > class(unclass(zed)) [1] "array" >

Zed, Very cool, finally got around to playing with StatusHandler and StatisticsHandler. One thing that was missing that I wanted was insight into _what_ the RailsHandler was working on, and what was queued up while it sat in single-threaded mode -- ie., the current list of requests. W/ the attached mongrel.conf, I hacked the RailsHandler to keep a hash of active requests, and spit that out

Hi Everyone, Just want to get out another ping on the Mongrel pre-release saga. I''ve updated a bunch of the documentation to include documents people have donated and to beef up the FAQ for most of the questions people have asked over the past month. INSTALL gem install mongrel --source=http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/ CHANGES * Fixed memory leak by switching to Sync rather

I don''t think there''s a way to do that other than using a proxy (ISAPI_REWRITE) or just a server-side redirect.

Hey folks, I''m falling behind in my Mongrel duties and seriously need to recruit an enterprising individual to take on the patch queue and help push out a new release with some minor fixes. The goal would be to just get patches that are currently languishing, pull them together, put them in the source, write some tests to try them, and then one slight design change. If this works out

Hello Everyone, I''d like to just officially announce that the new volunteers are in charge and given control of the project. I won''t be doing anything more than helping them get ramped up, but they''ll be in charge of doing all the stuff you folks want and are basically the owners from now on. Everyone in the new volunteer list will probably do a little announce, but
