similar to: using R under windows

I am used to using R under unix. I have a problem with R under Windows-2000: Suppose I have a plain text file code.r full of R code that I want to source into R. My problem is that Windows invisibly tacks ".txt" onto the end of the filename (the name looks like code.r but it is really code.r.txt). How to get windows to both allow me to call it code.r (for real! Not

Hi , I am programming on a windows system and have problems using notepad which is my main editor.Each time I try to open the editor from the R IDE, R crashes.

CAn someone tell me if I am doing anything wrong or is there a better editor(freeware) which I could get. thanks cilver ===== ===================== Sylvie B.

I have continuous variables x, y, z. The plot of the data looks like this: y | z=1(o), 2(@), 3(#), 4(*) | |* * * | | |# # # # | | |@ @ @ @ | | o | o | o | o |o ------------------------ x The correct model appears to be: if z==1, y~x+z; else y~z (y~z + z:x isn't it) How can I express this model in lm()?

Yet there is one immediate short coming of R: The lack of an integrated editor. A plain editor (e.g. similar to notepad in windows) in which people can write their code, highlight the piece of code they wish to "submit" and then press a single

I'm using version 1.1.1 under Windows NT and Windows 2000. I'm unable to get any editor other than Notepad to work. (I don't have use for any of the Unix editors - vi or Emacs) but would like to use EditPadPro, which has some nifty features, including the ability to spawn Rgui from within it. (No syntax highlighting programmability yet, but maybe soon). Anyway, I have

I'm in the final week of teaching a course to beginners using R and S-Plus. Since I forbade the students from using the "point-and-click" interface in S-Plus, they've become reasonably proficient at using the command line in both programs. Students really like the speed and ease-of-use of R for the vast majority of their projects. I think they'd switch to R completely

I've had time to return to the "external editor" project. The following function does almost what I want, which is to allow an external editor to feed command lines to R. ext.editor<-function(editor) { ext.input<-pipe(editor,"r") eval(parse(ext.input)) close(ext.input) } While the description of parse() indicates that it should parse input line by line, the

Hi, I am a student studying Biostatistics at University. We have been advised to install R and R commander. I managed to do this successfully, except I wasn't able to complete the final step - which would enable both R and R commander to launch when I open the R icon on my desktop. However, I haven't been able to save it and for this to work. The last instructions we were given are:

I am currently using Samba 2.0.6 on a Sun box running Solaris 2.5.1. If I create a file on my Unix filesystem like name : data.txt permissions: rw-rw-r-- owner : John group : developers Assume my name is Brett and I'm in the developers group, if I go to my NT 4.0 system and modify this file via the NOTEPAD application, everything works fine, But, if I use MS Excel and

I've been working on a document describing the use of XEmacs and ESS with R for Windows users, along with configuration files that are meant to make things simple for Windows users. This was initially intended for my students, but with recent discussions of Windows (and other) editors on the the R-help list, I thought that I'd make the material more widely available.

Hi there, I am using the windows version R1.9.0. I used to be a Splus user. When I used Splus to try some computation, I like to put all my codes in a script file and check them line by line. This way I can keep track of all my thinking and it's very easy to make correction at some earlier steps. Now I can not find this script-file style in R. The software itself doesn't seem to have

Hi, Kurt Hornik and I will start to publish a quarterly electronic ``R Newsletter'' beginning with January 2001 (if all goes well). The idea is to have a mixture of articles describing 1) new features in R itself 2) contributed add-on packages 3) nice applications 4) more general statistical computing issues related to R 5) or ... OK, now comes my christmas wish to you: If you are

I'm getting "access denied" with one particular samba 4 home directory NFS share. But only with Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. If I edit an RTF file in wordpad or notepad and save it back to the samba home share it works. But I get "access denied" if I'm using Word. Also, no problems with WordPerfect. On the same NFS mount point I have several Samba shares. Lets

Hi, I have adviced my students to install R and an editor on a USB drive for working in the computer class. With R everything works fine following these instructions: http://personal.bgsu.edu/~mrizzo/Rmisc/usbR.htm. But several editors (e.g., Tinn-R and WinEdt) require administrator rights. I have found out that Emacs (Vincent Goulet's Emacs for Windows Modified

Dear All; I have used Winedt editor in conjunction with R on the Win2K platform for more than a year without any problem. Recently I purchased a P4 machine with Windows XP. Following the installation of R1.62 and WinEdt 5.3 to separate directories, I copied R-WinEdt to the Plugins subdirectory under the Winedt directory, clicked on the "install" file and edited the Rprofile with two

The answer to my question was contained in http://cran.r-project.org/contrib/extra/winedt/ReadMe , although it helped to receive the restatements that were emailed to me. As mentioned by Uwe Ligges, Renuad Lancelot, Niels Waller, my mistake was not starting R before using R-WindEdt. Below I will copy the instructions on using R-WinEdt by Renaud Lancelot (except for the last paragraph which is

Hello: I installed R-WinEdit according to the instructions, including those for setting the editor and pager options.
