Dear list, I'm using the windows version of R. When plotting a curve or a line for time series with annual data , e. g. GDP growth 1991-2003, the line seems to exist of a lot of smaller lines. Printing the results the curves and lines seems to be "unclean" (because of using small resolution bitmaps?). Comparing the result of R with the same results of Excel the lines in excel seems

Dear list, are there any possibilities to fill a polygon with a point pattern or with a symbol pattern like '+' oder '-' instead of shading lines?

Hallo everyone! Has anyone an idee to get out data of more than one Excel-file via RODBC with one single sqlQuery-command? The RODBC-manual shows how the sql command shoot run, but every time I try, I got an error, that the ODBC-connection to one of the files was not successful. If I make a sqlQuery for only one file (e. g. in DatAllg.XLS without variables from DatBev.XLS / b. ...), the

Thanks for the tip using a smoothing technique before plotiing in order to get a curve instead of a line connecting the observations. But that's not the solution for my main problem with the "unclean" line plot. In order to show my problem let's take this simple example: > xval <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) > yval <- c(10, 30, 40, 50, 70, 90, 100, 110) > plot

Dear list members, I'm using R in connection with the RDCOMClient and Excel. The more I use the package, the more I'm fascinated of it. The possibilities of R can be brought together with the necessities of outputing my socio-economical research results in MS Office! But I have some special questions concering the use of RDCOMClient and perhaps you can help me solving them: 1. Problems

Hi List, I just updated an old sendmail installation to a modern postfix/dovecot system with mysql backend. Everything works fine but SMTP-AUTH fails with some clients. The problem is, that with PLAIN (old) clients send the base64 coded form: USERNAME\0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which, as i understand dovecot interprets as MASTERUSER\0USERNAME\PASSWORD. New clients send \0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which works

When running a = runif(10) class(a) = "foo" Math.foo = function(x, ...) { NextMethod(.Generic) } signif(a, 3) cumsum(a) I don't understand why cumsum strips the class, but signif does not. Both claim in the documentation that "These are generic functions: methods can be defined for them individually or via the ?Math? group generic." -- Edzer Pebesma Institute for

Hi! I noticed that `ssh -D /tmp/socket $myhost` will actually provide a socks server listing on the unix domain socket /tmp/socket (this does not appear to be documented, though it is semi-documented for -L and -R). Do you know of any "socksification" script to go along with it, in the spirit of tsocks of socksify (from dante)? Those do not seem to support socks servers running on

Hi, in src/lib-smtp/smtp-address.c line 759 the localpart is compared with null_strcmp, which does not ignore the case. While this is the correct behavior (according to the RFC) it causes problems in real life. In my case the vacation notices are not sent, if someone writes to First.Last at ruhr-uni-bochum.de because :addresses contains (only) first.last at ruhr-uni-bochum.de. Regards,

List, In order to get rid of some old, unreadable S3 code in package sp, I'm trying to rewrite things using S4 methods. Somewhere I fail, and I cannot sort out why. In order to isolate the problem, I created two functions, doNothing<- and dosth, and both should do nothing. The issue is that in most cases they do nothing, but in some cases dosth(obj) changes the class of obj and breaks with

Dear R folks While preparing figures of 'envfit' plots with vegan for publication, I ran into a layout problem, that I found no solution for in the literature or the help archive: The labels of the vectors that indicate correlations of environental variables sometimes overlap with each other or with other content of the figure. Hence, I would like to rearrange them. Is there a

Dear All, I fitted two non-nested proportional hazards models using the coxph() function from package survival. Now, I would like to apply a model selection test like, e.g., the likelihood ratio test proposed by Vuong. I found an implementation of Vuong's test in the package 'pscl', but that does not work for cox models. Is there any package available that provides an

A while ago our institute was approached by a large company, say XXX, who asked whether we would like to become an Xxx development center, as we are active in the same area. After some negotation we did, believing there will be mutual benefits. Some time later, after putting up the Xxx development center logo on the institute home page, my feeling grew that we are also, and probably to a larger

Suppose I'm author of a package on which quite a few other packages depend. When I submit to CRAN, I run R CMD check on it, Kurt does that too, and if things work out fine, it is accepted. When one or more of the packages that depend on it break because of my changes, however, hell breaks loose. I would like to extend my testing (currently: R CMD check pkg) to running R CMD check on all

Hi I am using following versions of Ruby and Rails on arch linux [hardik@sunshine: kandibank ]$ ruby --version ruby 1.9.1p429 (2010-07-02 revision 28523) [x86_64-linux] [hardik@sunshine: kandibank ]$ rails --version Rails 2.3.8 I am using the sqllite database in development mode. I can store a string having German special characters (umlauts) without a problem i.e. Müller. But when Rails

Dear List, I have data which contain the special German characters "ä", "ö", "ü" etc. After reading the text files into R those characters are displayed strangely, e. g. "ä" is "ä". The first step is to replace those with their typical transcription, e. g. "ä" becomes "ae" by using the gsub command. Until I upgraded to
