Setting enviroment variable R_DEFAULT_DEVICE causes an error. The patch below fixes this. I guess the same goes for R_INTERACTIVE_DEVICE. --- R-2.7.0/src/library/grDevices/R/zzz.R 2008-04-27 13:49:11.000000000 +0200 +++ R-2.7.0/src/library/grDevices/R/zzz.R.new 2008-04-27 13:59:37.000000000 +0200 @@ -22,7 +22,7 @@ extras <- if(.Platform$OS.type == "windows")

Sorry, should have given more background. x11 works fine on all my systems when called by x11(). I'm the maintainer of a package that uses the animation library, which has performance issues when used with the RStudio plot device. But if you call plot.new() when using RStudio, you get an RStudio device, not the standard device for the platform because it overrides the device option.

Hi, haven't been here for a while, but everyone one was always so helpful I thought I would ask you another really basic question. I'm running R2.9.1 in Ubuntu8.04 on a netbook (maxed out on memory etc so I don't think that's a problem - wth it's a Dell Mini 9" with that lpia non-architecture you told me about). Anyway, some of the graphics functions/parameters are

Hi there, I am trying to distinguish between getOption() and Sys.getenv(). My understanding is that these are both used to set values for variables. getOption is set something like this: option("var" = "A"). This can be placed in an .Rprofile or at the top of script. They are called like this getOption("var"). Environmental variables are set in the .Renviron file

Hello List, I am teaching a basic course where students are encouraged to use R. There are a few students using Mac OS X. As a test we downloaded and installed the latest .dmg file (R-2.6.1.dmg) onto a intel Mac running 10.5.1. A device query yields > getOption("device") "quartz" But any plot command does not bring up a plot (e.g. plot(), boxplot(), hist()). I found a

To Whom it May Concern: I have been using R version 2.6.2 for awhile now, installed on a PowerMac G5 running OS 10.4.11 I typically get Quartz graphics output from R into Adobe Illustrator CS2 simply by copying and pasting. Upon upgrading to R version 2.7.0, I now receive an error from Illustrator when trying to paste R generated graphics from the Quartz window into Illustrator. I do

Hi All. I am getting a rather odd error using R 2.2.0 on Suse Linux 10. I write R scripts in the text editor Kate and then execute them using e.g >source ("timecourse_il4.r") in R. I have been moving these scripts between a linux box and a Mac and for that reason have a line quartz(display="", width=7, height=7)# set quartz graphics window size for linux change this to

I can run one-sample t-test on an array, for example a matrix myData1, with the following apply(myData1, 2, t.test) Is there a similar fashion using apply() or something else to run 2-sample t-test with datasets from two groups, myData1 and myData2, without looping? TIA, Gang

Hi, a few days back I had asked for help on a Qt device package. Thanks to hints from Duncan TL and Thomas Friedrichsmeier, I now have something more or less functional. For those interested, It can be downloaded from http://dsarkar.fhcrc.org/R/R-Qt.html I have a couple of related questions. First, dev.interactive(), used in example() and many demo()-s to decide if the current device is

par(mfrow=c(2,2)) y<-1:20 plot(y, pch="+") plot(y, pch="+") plot(y, pch="+") plot(y, pch="+") produces a pdf that is viewable in Preview (copied from the clipboard) but fails to print. pch default or ="." or =3 prints. Unfortunately pch=3 doesn't fix the mfrow=c(5,6) graph that I'm actually trying to print, so the bug lies

Hi R-devl, I'm still unable to force opening an *interactive* non-Rstudio platform-specific plot device on *unix* systems. dev.new() add a new argument 'noRStudioGD' in R 3.1.1. Thank you. It works for me when using RStudio on Windows, but on the unix system it opens a pdf device instead of an interactive device when using an interactive RStudio session (with R_DEFAULT_DEVICE

dear dirk, i am following up on our thread on r-help-mailinglist. you advised me to bring it over here. when installing packages from within R, they usually go to a directory defined in R_LIBS_USER, which i have it set in .Renviron. when installing packages via sudo apt install r-cran-.., they go to /usr/lib/R/site-library. is there a possibility to have packages installed to the R_LIBS-USER

Dear Johannes, Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for helping. Here is the missing information. Here is how I installed R. This is basically how Martin Maechler showed me to install R under Ubuntu (in several versions so that they are also recognized by ESS). My goal is to adjust this to make it work for Debian: 1) sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # then add: deb

Hi everyone, Two minor points about ?.Renviron. 1) If R_ENVIRON is not set then R defaults to `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron', not `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron.site' as stated. 2) In the details, there is a missing "way" in "`value' is processed in a similar to a Unix shell."
