Hi! Since August I am using emacs on my Macintosh to edit the R objects. I have installed R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5 and GNU Emacs 21.2.1. However there are some issues I haven't resolved: a) switch the caps lock key to the meta key (and when this is not possible, switch the alt/option key to the meta). The switch should work only within emacs! b) having different colors for the code,

Dear list, Not strictly R ... In R on Xemacs with ESS (R-2.0.1, Xemacs-21.4.15-r3, ESS-5.2.6) on gentoo-linux when I use k<-edit(k) or fix(k) to change a small vector k <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6) the opened window (called '6b8b4567') appears not to be connected to the gnuclient and I'm able to edit the file but has no instructions in the minibuffer and C-x # gives '6b8b4567 does

Hi R user! What is the fastest way to export a large matrix or vector to a MySQL database? The use of data.frame() and dbWriteTable() makes the process slow, so is there any <direct> alternative? Regards Meinhard Ploner

Hi, After some reading and experimentation I found that I cannot solve this problem: 1. I am starting R and check: > system("pwd") /home/woodstock/hoffmacw/R/test > system("echo $HOME") /home/woodstock/hoffmacw > system("echo $R_PROFILE") /home/woodstock/hoffmacw/R > system("ls $R_PROFILE/.Rprofile") /home/woodstock/hoffmacw/R/.Rprofile

Hello! Maybe "frame" is not the right term in this context. I explain my problem by example code: fun2 <- function(objName, add) { ## the object "objName" should be increased by "add", ## but the evaluation should be done in the calling function (here: fun1) ## ...... what's the right code?? } fun1 <- function() { x <- 1 fun2("x",

Hello R Community, I've been run the following codes. However, I've been getting an unusual segfault that I'm unable to trace its origin. Please give me a light to decipher the "caught segfault" Thanks for you attention. Bernardo. > options(STERM='iESS', editor='emacsclient') > rm(list = ls()) > > source("fgenIGLD.R") #RNG

I just installed Rmpi on my 64-bit Ubuntu Hardy Heron OS and using the following without errors: "R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz --configure-args=--with-mpi=/usr/lib64/openmpi" Immediately at library(Rmpi) I get the segfault displayed in my complete output below. My first thought is that perhaps I used the wrong library for openmpi, but with my 64 bit install it seemed like a logical

Thanks a lot, James!! The problem is fixed. On the version 1.4.0 Mac/darwin (the latest available version for this system) the function read.table (which is called from read.delim etc., too) has the bug you explained. Inserting the row nlines <- nlines+1 after lines <- c(lines, line) removes this bug. M. On Friday, February 22, 2002, at 02:33 PM, james.holtman at convergys.com

I am new on R, so I have a maybe naive question: if I have many large data.frames and I use only one or two per session, what's the best way? If all are stored in the actual .Rdata, the system gets slow. On the other hand, I wouldn't like to make a separate package for the data. Should I save it with save() and then remove it with rm() ? Could I reload it then? Thanks for suggestions

Hi, I'm not sure if this is an R problem, a Debian problem, a GNU Emacs problem or an ESS problem. I get the following warning the first time I call help on a command in a session, for example: > ?sessionInfo Warning message: use of NULL environment is deprecated This only occurs in GNU Emacs, not when running R from bash, and not with Xemacs. It started happening when I updated R

It's possible to overlap an external image (jpg or pdf) with a plot generated with R? Specifying the image as the background of the plot might not be possible... any idea? thanks Meinhard Ploner

Hi all, I have Win XP and R 2.3.1 on my notebook. I would like to write a package which includes some Fortran 95 code. Interestingly, if I compile and link the simple file test90.f90 directly with g95 -c test90.f90 g95 -shared -o test90.dll test90.o then PE Viewer ( a dll viewer) shows me the right functions in the export table, hence I can use the dll in R. But as it should become part of a

hi! I tried to build a very simple package with NAMESPACE file, such that datasets are loaded only dynamically. > a2 <- function(x=a1) x+4 > a1 <- 1:10 > package.skeleton("aaa", list=c("a1", "a2")) Then I modified the help files and added the file NAMESPACE with these 2 lines: useDynLib(aaa) export(a1, a2) Then "R CMD BUILD aaa" works

Hello! What is wrong on my system? I have downloaded today R 1.9.1 on my PC with Windows. plot.table isn't available in package <base> and neither in package <graphics> (as suggested after ?plot.table). Kind regards Meinhard Ploner [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have a graphic image in a file (say a *.jpeg or *.png file) and want to put it into a plot. I have segmented the plot area by means of the layout function and successfully plotted my data in the appropriate segments. I cannot find how to put my graphic image onto the same plot. Searching the archives has shed little light on my challenge. Many thanks in anticipation. Gordon > version

Hello, I have some problems with RODBC and Excel in Win98 I am using R 1.6.2 and just upgraded RODBC to the last version on CRAN.

In R prior to 2.6.0 with matrizes as well as with data.frames it is possible to do: a[2, c(TRUE, FALSE)] In R 2.6.0 the mixed indexing works only for matrizes. Is this the intention, a bug, or did I get something wrong?
