Re: make.search.html() without write permission in R.home() (PR#6664)
I did that. In fact the default uses .libPaths()[1], which I have set to
"P:/stat/yandell/public/statgen/R"
The package installs fine. However, the HTML search is not done properly.
Again, the break occurred after installation of the package, when
make.search.html() was invoked.

Re: make.search.html() without write permission in R.hom e( ) (PR#6664)
So this is on Windows, then? This is documented somewhere (don't remember):
If the package is not located under $R_HOME/library, then the html help will
not be able to find it. Don't think there's a known work-around.
Cheers,

Hi,

R-beta: RPM and .deb packages for R-0.61
This may have been announced before but there are now both Debian
GNU/Linux and RedHat Linux packages for R-0.61 on the CRAN archive
sites. The master site for CRAN is
http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/
That site provide a list of available mirror sites. Within the CRAN
archive sites the pre-compiled packages for Linux are located in the
bin/i386-linux directory.

R-beta: New r-base package for Debian-2.0
I have recompiled the r-base package for Debian-2.0 with readline
support. I still haven't determined why the configure script does
not detect the readline library on one machine but does detect it
on another where I compiled this.
The package is available as
ftp://franz.stat.wisc.edu/pub/R/bin/i386-linux/Debian-2.0/r-base_0.61.1-3_i386.deb

Prototype nls library for R using closures
I just uploaded to CRAN a prototype nls (nonlinear least squares)
library for R. It is far from being finished but I am asking for
this preliminary version to be installed in the src/contrib/Devel
section of CRAN so others can see the use of function closures
to emulate the behaviour of objects in languages like Java.
It will be a couple of days before the file is installed in CRAN and

"outer" argument in mtext (PR#340)
mtext(..., outer = TRUE) does not seem to center the text in the outer
margins as it did previously. Reproduce with
example(plot.profile.nls, package = "nls")
On versions of the development sources before November 17 this
produced main and subtitles that were centered horizontally on the
page. After that the main title (from mtext("..", side = 3, outer = TRUE))

Singular Gradient in nls
//Referring to the response posted many years ago, copied below, what
is the specific criterium used for singularity of the gradient matrix?
Is a Singular Value Decomposition used to determine the singular
values? Is it the gradient matrix condition number or some other
criterion for determining singularity?

NLME-3.1 package available for R-0.90.0
With the assistance of Saikat DebRoy we have produced an nlme package
(linear and nonlinear mixed-effects models) for R (see
http://www.r-project.org/ for details about R). The nlme package for
R requires R-0.90.0, which was released earlier today.
Also released today was NLME 3.2 for S-PLUS. We will be working on

Copyrights for R contributed libraries
I have been packaging both R and the R contributed libraries for the
Debian GNU/Linux operating system. Right now if anyone installs
Debian Linux on an Intel machine or a DEC Alpha they will have the
option of installing R as a regular part of the operating system. I
think this is a good way of getting wider distribution of high quality
statistical software. The Linux community is growing

forwarded message from Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>
Dirk's mail to r-devel bounced because of his peculiar return
address. He asked me to forward this for him.
P.S. I have tried building R with atlas2 on a Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
system but I have not yet managed to out-fox the configure script to
get it to use the desired shared object library.

R-beta: "A brief history of S"
While writing his '98 Interface paper Ross Ihaka was asking about the
history of S so he could relate it to the history of R. I was looking
at the Statistics and Information Analysis Division's web page at Bell
Labs and went to their technical reports section
http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/doc/
Sure enough, there is a tech report by Rick Becker on "A Brief History
of S".

An R BOF meeting at the JSM?
The BOF in the subject line is a "Birds Of a Feather" meeting. This
is a chance for people who normally only get the chance to communicate
via e-mail to actually sit down and talk to each other in person.
I plan to be at the Joint Statistical Meetings in Dallas in August.
If you will be attending and would be interested in getting together
with some other R folks, please e-mail me and
