similar to: grid and gtkDevice package clipping bug.

Hello! I am trying to install gtkDevice package, but without success. It is complaining about: * Installing *source* package 'gtkDevice' ... checking for gtk-config... no checking for gtk12-config... no ERROR: Cannot find gtk-config. I am using Ubuntu 6.06, and I cannot find that package in the repositories. Is there a remedy of any kind? What can I do? Best, Petar M.

Dear all, when I try to install gtkDevice on Mandrake Linux 9.1 (R v. 1.7.1), I get the following comfiguration error (see below). Has anyone else had this problem? Any hints are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, Dimitri install.packages("gtkDevice") trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES' Content type `text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1' length

I was wondering the same thing. The traceroute seems to end at their border router, which leads me to believe that they has a hardware failure. Hoping that they get it up in a few days. I've checked around and there are a few mirrors but they all just hang, so I guess we have to wait... Mark Fowle ------------------------------------------------------- Navicom Inc.

...does not work. Do k<-grid.points(c(0.1,0.2,0.3),c(0.1,0.2,0.3),pch=3,vp=viewport()) (symbol - +). Try to change it grid.edit(k, pch=1) (symbol - open circle). Get filled squares. pch from 0 to 25 produces the same output. pch="x" - works OK. Device - x11(), gtk() (from GtkDevice). R -1.6.1

Dear r helpers, In my exploration of the tcltk facilities of R I've had some success but some failures, and wonder if someone could point me to a solution.

I have compiled R 1.7.1 with gnome and installed the gtkDevice on a Linux RH 8 system. This is my first use of this device and I have two questions about it. 1. After running R --rui="gnome", the console comes up. To open a graphics window, I open the gtkDevice library [library(gtkDevice)], then start a gtk device [gtk()]. After the library command, I receive the message from R

Hello! Suppose I have my own R-package with long src/ subdirectory. If I edit only one file from this directory what I have to do to make R recompile only this file and resulting *.so library but not the all other source files? It looks to me like the default behaviour has changed in R-2.3.1. Thank you. M.Kondrin

Hi everybody, I a, trying to use R as a pipe like this: cat inputData | R --silent RCommandFile >outputData The RCommandFile would contain something like readLines(stdin()). I have tryed various things and none did work cleanly. One possible solution is to use the pipe() function inside R and to pass in the "cat inputData" however this is not very convenient since I would like to

Dear all, In many cases, I need a plotting region much bigger than the screen (e.g. for maps or for graphs with many labels). A. MS-Windows if I try windows(width=25, height=25, rescale="fixed") it seems to be OK (a screen with scrollbars, exactly what I need) but if I try then plot(faithful$eruptions, faithful$waiting) I receive Error in plot.new() : Outer margins too large

Hello! Some CS-guys (the type who knows what Church formalism is) keep asking me questions about formal definitions of R-language that I can not answer (or even understand). Is there some freely available papers which I can throw at them where it would be explained is R functional/OOP/procedural language, does it use weak/strong, dynamic/static typization, does it use lazy or ...(do not know

Greetings all: Newcomer to R as I work on learning it to transfer my college classroom stats training to something more useful and accurate then that spreadsheet from Redmond which shall remain nameless. I'm running v2.6.2 on a Win XP Home system that I keep up to date with all the called for patches. Haven't added much to the basic install other than the bits and bobs needed to run

OK, my journey to make lab machines automagically install & update all desirable R packages is nearing an end! The only question I have now is this: How can I control where the system prints the *.Rout file that is created automatically when the R batch program runs. In "man R" I don't find any information about it. When the cron job runs "R_installAll.sh" (see

Hello! Don't quite understand how can I delete grobs and simultaneously erase graphic output they produce. I first change grob's "vp" field to null (grid.edit(gr,vp=NULL)) to erase it and then call rm(gr) (as grobs are external pointers I'm not shure what this method actually frees allocated memory). May be there is simpler method? Does garbage collector have any effect

Dear R-Users, I need to find a smooth function f() and coefficients a_i that give the best fit to y ~ a_0 + a_1*f(x_1) + a_2*f(x_2) Note that it is the same non-linear transformation f() that is applied to both x_1 and x_2. So my first question is how can I do it in R? A more general question is this: suppose I have a utility function U(a_i, f()), where f() is say a spline. Is there a general

I upgraded from Fedora Core 4 to Fedora Core 5 and I find a lot of previously installed packages won't run because shared libraries or other system things have changed "out from under" the installed R libraries. I do not know for sure if the R version now from Fedora-Extras (2.2.1) is exactly the same one I was using in FC4. I see problems in many packages. Example, Hmisc: unable

Partly about new features and partly about old features that are not being used. R_exts/GraphicsEngine.h says /* * The current graphics engine (including graphics device) API version * MUST be integer * * This number should be bumped whenever there are changes to * GraphicsEngine.h or GraphicsDevice.h so that add-on packages * that compile against these headers (graphics systems

For those who are interested, I've finished release of 0.4 of pmg and have placed it on my website at http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/Statistics/R/pmg. The pmg package provides some GUI elements using the RGtk package and friends: RGtk, OOP, RGtkExtra, RGtkHTML, RGdkPixbuf, RGtkViewers and REventLoop from www.omegahat.org and gtkDevice from CRAN. (These require a form of UNIX such as linux, OS

Hello. I'm looking for documentation about the graphic device model in R. I would understand it in the details, but it seems a bit complex :) Thanks for any documents which will help me. Laurent

Why this command does not return grob? What is special about grill and what makes it different from axis, lines, rectangles... Thanks in advance
