Barry, Would you mind providing the necessary patch for this behavior?

I've just spent a couple of idle weekends getting a version of the S-plus 'maps' library working under R. For those unfamiliar with the maps library, it lets you map a geographical region, split into areas, and optionally colour-fill those areas according to some variable. For example: R> library(maps) R>

Full_Name: Barry Rowlingson Version: 1.6.0 OS: RH8 i386 Submission from: (NULL) (148.88.136.205) Strange things happen if I premultiply a difftime() object with a number. Example: > d1 <- difftime(Sys.time(),Sys.time()) > d2 <- 1 * difftime(Sys.time(),Sys.time()) > d3 <- difftime(Sys.time(),Sys.time()) * 1 > d1 Time difference of 0 secs - thats fine > d2 [1] 0

I see some value in Duncan?s proposal to implement this as an extra package instead of a change to base R, if only to see if the idea has legs. I?m minded to do so myself using your suggestion, but is there a particular reason why you recommend using the remotes package instead of devtools? The latter seems to have the same functions I would need, and I believe it is more widely installed that

Thanks to Andy Liaw and Baz for alternatives to tinkering with plot.formula to get plot(cbind(y1,y2) ~ x, ...) to work.

A ridiculous number of answers to a fairly trivial query on R-news lately - 13 messages on the archive so far telling how to do paste(c("Bob","loves","Sally"),collapse=" "). I think a lot of this is due to the increased latency because of network and mailer problems that Martin mentioned earlier, but there's an inherent latency in mailing lists

Mosix is a cluster operating system that is a set of kernel patches to Linux on i386 machines. It allows processes to migrate to other nodes on the cluster transparently. See www.mosix.org for details. However, my R processes were refusing to migrate. Using strace, and delving into the R code, I found that it was due to a large number of calls to the system setjmp and longjmp routines - the

Re: Heteroscedasticity and mgcv. (Collin Lynch) The GAMLSS package can model heterogeneity in the scale parameter (e.g. standard deviastion) [and also heterogeity in skewness and kurtosis parameters].of the response variable distribution. For parametric models a generalized likelihood ratio test can be used to test whether the heterogeity is needed. Alternatively a generalized Akaike

Hi Peter, The ssconvert tool (part of gnumeric) is very good at converting spreadsheets to csv-files. There is a wrapper in the "gnumeric" package on cran.

Ummm oops. Magic pixies? It assumed all of CRAN was installed? Maybe I'll write something that could go in /usr/lib/R/bin/RUN that checks and gets deps, installs the package, and runs package::main, which I think is what the OP wants - you could do R CMD RUN foo_1.0.0.tar.gz and away it goes...

To download a package with all its dependencies and install it, use the install.packages() functions instead of 'R CMD INSTALL'. E.g., in bash: mkdir /tmp/libJunk env R_LIBS_SITE=libJunk R --quiet -e 'if (!requireNamespace("purrr",quietly=TRUE)) install.packages("purrr")' For corporate "production use" you probably want to set up your own repository

Creating an .exe file isn't necessarily difficult. The main problems are that you have to write and compile the C (or other) files. Otherwise, the complexity depends on the level of Inter Process Communication that's required. Simply starting R with some initial conditions, is easy. Even if you want to prompt the user to install missing packages, it isn't necessarily difficult. It

I'm having some confusion over the coordinate system after using pairs. I'm not interested in the content of the actual pairs plot, although the number of pairs seems to matter a bit. I'm purely interested in knowing where my points will be plotted on the device. However, after using pairs, the par information (omd, fig, plt, and usr) don't reflect what points does. For example:

Hi, I posted over at R-help, and didn't get a response, but perhaps that was the wrong forum for this question. I'm having some confusion over the coordinate system after using pairs.
