similar to: Windows Printing and Line Widths

... Moved from R-help ... Thank you for your suggestion, Professor Ripley. Postscript does seem like the way to go for printing line widths correctly in Windows. On Linux I am using a simple dev.print() wrapper (as suggested), with a pipe to lpr. However, I had an extremely difficult time getting postscript printing under windows. ?postscript recommends the RedMon suite of tools for printing

Dear R-help, Has anyone notice the problem that, on Windows (NT and XP), when printing a graph using the "File -> Print..." menu in the graphics window to print the graph, that line width seemed to be ignored in the printed output? For example, if I make a plot with plot(1:10, type="l", lwd=5), it looks right on screen, but when printed out using the menu, it looks like

Andy; Well, that about does it.... I'm copying this one back to the list for the benefit of those who may hit this thread while searching the archives. Your changes to the code run just fine on the my Windows machine, but gives the vector length error on the G4 whether I'm using the OS X build of R (as in Raqua) or the X11 build (for Darwin). It is worth noting that I have nearly twice

With the same system configuration (WinNT4 SP6 and 1.7.0), I get such a Dr Watson crash each time I try to use the Change dir... command in the File menu of Rgui.exe. I doesn't seems to happen if I do this immediately after starting R but well if I already did some computation. I don't have any problem by using directly setwd().

A new version of the randomForest package is now available on CRAN. The DESCRIPTION is: Package: randomForest Title: Breiman's random forest for classification and regression Version: 3.4-1 Depends: R (>= 1.5.0) Author: Fortran original by Leo Breiman and Adele Cutler, R port by Andy Liaw and Matthew Wiener. Description: Classification and regression based on a forest of trees using

Dear R-devel, Has anyone played with this? http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html <http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html> .

The link from http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.html#randomForest seems to be broken. To get the file try http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/randomForest_3.3-4.tar.gz instead. > -----Original Message----- > From: Liaw, Andy [mailto:andy_liaw at merck.com] > Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 8:08 PM > To: 'r-announce at stat.math.ethz.ch' > Subject:

Dear R-help, Can some one tell me what could be the problem? I downloaded the R-1.7.1 source and try to compile it on WinXP. "make", "make bitmapdll", "make tcl", "make recommended" all ran w/o problem. However, when I ran "make docs", it failed at creating refman.pdf, with no apparent error that I could see. I have attached the log file

Dear R-help: Has anyone tried using R on the the AMD Opteron in either 64- or 32-bit mode? If so, any good/bad experiences, comments, etc? We are considering getting this hardware, and would like to know if R can run smoothly on such a beast. Any comment much appreciated.

Dear Dr. Liaw Andy: I have a few more questions about your heatmap function. actually heatmap is what I am looking for. heatmap(x, Rowv, Colv, distfun = dist, hclustfun = hclust, add.expr, scale=c("row", "column", "none"), na.rm = TRUE, ...) my data is a XNEW, > dim(XNEW) [1] 554 335 554 genes, 335 samples. now I want to use 1-CORR as a distance

Dear R-help, Can some one tell me if it's possible to have conditional importFrom() in the package NAMESPACE file? Basically I'd like to know if it's possible to make the NAMESPACE file compatible with R 1.9.0 and those 1.8.1 and earlier. The problem is that I want to import cmdscale(), which is in `mva' prior to 1.9.0 but in `stats' post 1.9.0. Any pointer much appreciated!

Dear R-devel, A while ago Prof. Ripley had mentioned that g77 on AMD64 isn't the greatest, and the Salford Fortran is likely to be better. My question is, has anyone tried compiling R with Salford compilers (or other commercial compilers)? If so, do they offer performance advantages over GCC? TIA for any info.

Dear R-devel, Last week I got several responses to my question about debugging segfaults in my code (original post below). After I changed the S_alloc() calls to Calloc()/Free(), the symptom was gone, but I was told to keep looking. So I did: o Switched to Calloc/Free. Electric Fence did not find any problem. o Put assert(index < bound); assert(index >=0); everywhere in the C routine

Dear R-devel, I recall that there used to be a mechanism to get around the requirement that all objects in a package have associated documentation; i.e., a way to specify a list of objects (mostly functions) that are not considered as part of the package API. Is this still available? I cannot find any mention in R-exts. I realize that the way to go is to have a name space, and eventually

[I believe few users manipulate formulae and model frames like this, so I'm posting here instead of R-help.] I just found out that model.frame() includes all terms, including those preceded by "-" in the formula, in its output (as mentioned on its help page). Is there a recommended way of excluding "negative" terms? My guess is that I can use info in the terms attribute

Before I do that, I would need to remove the gcj stuff that are in /usr/bin. If I know how to remove gcj, I'd gladly do that. However, for the particular version of the OS, the entire GCC seems to be bundled into one rpm, and I could not remove just the gcj component. Neither do I wish to mess with files that are part of some RPMs--- in my experience that's invitation for trouble later.

Dear R-help, I've been compiling R from source on our Linux boxes for quite a while. One thing that bugs me is that I always get an error when make check-all where it choked up running tests/internet.R. That wasn't a big deal, as I can run install.packages()/update.packages() fine, and that's all I use the 'net connection for. The problem is that it takes a _long_ time to fail

Dear R-devel, I grabbed 1.7.0 beta from today. "make check" still fails at base-Ex.R. The last few lines of the output are: > lsf.str()#- how do the functions look like which I am using? Error in exists(nam <- nms[i], envir = envir, mode = mode) : F used instead of FALSE Execution halted Looks like the same problem as before, but at a different place. Mandrake Linux

Dear R-devel, I'm encountering a strange problem in a Rd file that I'm working on. In the "Value" section, I have something like: ===================== \value{ An object of class \code{randomForest}, which is a list with the following components: \item{call}{the original call to \code{randomForest}} ... For classification problem, the following are also included:
