similar to: Make on RedHat 8.0

Dear All, Hello I'm a newbie to the list. I recently installed R on a Redhat 9.0 system, when I come to plot anything it does not bring up a graphics window but rather stores it in a file "Rplots.ps". I tried x11() but that doesn't bring up a window either. I would greatly appreciate any advice. Simon Woodhead

Hi there, When installing R on linux 8.0, I got the following error message: rpm -i /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key ID 97d3544e error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed Any suggestions as what I did wrong? Thanks in advance. Wenyan [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

I often use R CMD BATCH to run my files (e.g. script.R), and get the output recorded in script.Rout -- this is great. On my setup (R.2.3.0 on linux), if any plots are created, they get stored in Rplots.ps. This can get confusing if I have several batch scripts in one directory. I've written a simple shell script to rename Rplots.ps to e.g. script.Rout.ps so that later I can easily identify

Greetings, I'm trying to debug a simple two-line plot routine in R called test.R: cor(swiss) plot(swiss$Catholic, swiss$Examination) These commands work fine when typed into R. They also work fine when I invoke this routine by the following line into my terminal: R --slave < /Library/WebServer/Documents/gsa/test.R My ultimate goal is to send data to this R routine via a web

Hi I have recently installed and implemented Xvfb (X virtual frame buffer) so that I can create jpegs using R over CGI (SUSE Linux 8.1 and Apache 1.3). I have noticed that in order to do this, a file (Rplots.ps) is created in my cgi-bin directory everytime a cgi script is run. This could cause problems though as I have a multi-user system where it is possible that two different users will run

R version: 2.0.0 OS: Fedora Core 1 When I'm using Fedora Core 1, Rplots.ps (and subsequent Rplots.pdf created after using ps2pdf Rplots.ps) which are created from the command line execution of R are too large to fit on a US Letter sized page when printed. The same code will produce a US letter sized page when I'm on my Debian Sid box. Both boxes are connected to the same shared

Hello. In the file list.txt, I have the name of n files in data frame format. I want to make an image for each file and save the images in pdf format. To do this, I do the following: llista = scan(file="list.txt",what=list(nom="")) for (file.name in llista[[1]]){ aux=read.table(file=file.name) aux=as.matrix(aux) pdf() image(aux)

I'm completely new to R, and I'd like to do something like this: > x=c(1,2,3) > plot(x,x) At this point, R creates a file "Rplots.pdf", since the default device is PDF and the default filename is "Rplots.pdf". I know I can set the default device like this: > options(device="png") But is there a way to set the default device's

Is there any R function that can display a Postscript file that is already in the working directory? For example, if 'graph.ps' is such a file, I'd like to type something like this: > plot.postscript.file(file = 'graph.ps') If no such function exists, I'd be interested in a way to use existing R functions to do this under UNIX or Windows, preferably without a system

[Sending both to the maintainer and to R-help, in case anyone else has answers ...] I've looked in odfWeave documentation, vignette, and poked around on the web some, and haven't found answers yet. 1a. am I right in believing that odfWeave does not respect the 'keep.source' option? Am I missing something obvious? 1b. is there a way to set global options analogous to

Hello. First post, please excuse lack of experience. I recently switched from MS-Win to Kubuntu and find it rather difficult to recover Cran-R ease of use. The "Graphics history" facility available under Windows was, for me, extremely useful. From Murrell's 2005 book (see citation below) I understand that no such facility is available under non-Windows systems. In R-help

I am using the Deepayan's Sweave trick to set graphics parameters for all graphs: ltheme = canonical.theme(color=TRUE) sup = trellis.par.get("superpose.line") ltheme$superpose.line$col = c('black',"red","blue","#e31111","green", "gray") .... Works perfectly, there is only a minor nuissance that trellis.par.get opens a device

The pdf man page contains the following text: pdf(file = ifelse(onefile, "Rplots.pdf", "Rplot%03d.pdf"), width = 6, height = 6, onefile = TRUE, family = "Helvetica", title = "R Graphics Output", fonts = NULL, version = "1.1", paper, encoding, bg, fg, pointsize) I am creating multi-page graphics in which each

Hi, I'd been using R in the past and recently installed it on a new windoze 7 machine. There have been many issues with compatibility and 32/64 bit apps etc and I did find on google on isolated complaint that saveplot failed in scripts a long time ago. R seems to work fine except script-based plot saving as pdf has not worked. I have tried the following, none of which seem to function, xyz

Hi. GENERAL: Is there a general method for inferring default device settings, particularly 'width' and 'height', that works for all devices? AFAIK, the answer is no, but there might be functions out there that I don't know of. POSTSCRIPT SPECIFIC: If not, I'm considering implementing such a method myself. Is it possible for R to infer the default 'width' and

I have generated a graph on the X11 device, but when I > dev.copy(postscript) postscript 3 > dev.off() X11 2 > the Rplots.ps file is generated but contains a prologue only.

Can I ask a couple of usage questions? (RedHat Linux 6.1, R-1.1) 1. This may just indicate I'm a dinosaur who can't leave SAS behind. I want to write programs and run them with source() to see what they do, then I would like to use the "up arrow" to go back through the commands that were in the file, fiddle them, see what they do, and so forth. Is there no way? SAS has a

Hi -- I'm trying to package R for inclusion on some upcoming Red Hat Powertools distribution. I have started with the 0.61 version packaged by Martyn Plummer <plummer at iarc.fr> (Thanks Martyn!) and have upgraded to 0.62-2. I have succeeded in running R demo's on i386-redhat-linux-gnu, and now I am also trying to get the alpha and sparc versions working. On sparc-redhat-linux,

Am I the only one with this problem? > postscript() Error in old$command == "default" : comparison (1) is possible only for vector types The function postscript() is creates a list called "old". the function wants to access old$command, but old does not have a component called command. > postscript function (file = ifelse(onefile, "Rplots.ps",
