Hi all, I often have to peek at large data. While head and tail are convenient, at times I'd like some more comprehensive. I guess I debug better in a more visual way? I was wondering if there's a way to override the default data editor. I could of course dump to a txt file, and look at it with an editor/spreadsheet, but after doing it a few times, it gets boring. Maybe it's time for

Hi, This is a simple trick to get autoclose parenthesis on windows. If you like how StatET autocloses parens, but like to use the lighter Vanilla R, you can use autohotkey (http://autohotkey.net) to provide this functionality. Simply put the below code in a text file, rename extension as .ahk and doubleclick on it to execute. ------------------ code starts here 8< ------------------ ;

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have something strange here... I want to subset a large sparse matrix, with the subset being still in sparse form. Easily achievable with mm[i,,drop=F] , right? Well, it doesn't work on the matrix I'm working on. This is a very large wikipedia Matrix (now I can play with it as I just got 16Gb of memory): > mm at Dim [1] 793251

Hi, While I'm a devoted vim user, I'm testing ESS :) How do I set the working directory when using ESS and R under windows? When I try to launch R, it asks for a directory. In windows, it simply doesn't let you pick a directory on the 'open' dialog. It may be a problem with windows server 2008 64 bit, though, as it seems really basic. Thanks. Best, -Jose -- Jose Quesada,

Hi, I'm trying to get Rmysql to work o windows server 2008 64-bit. I have the latest build of mysql installed (mysql-5.1.34-winx64). When trying to load Rmysql, I got a warning that Rmysql is linking to an old-ish mysql build (5.0.67). I could do some basic stuff (the connection works) but it breaks when trying to read a large table. So I set up to use the buld 5.0.67 that Rmysql likes. 10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The Center for Adaptive Behavior and cognition (ABC) at Max Planck Institute, Berlin (Germany) is looking for Student research assistants. We work on a mixed environment of R and Java. Skills on both would be a plus, but some R knowledge (or willingness to learn) should suffice. Requirements: You must be enrolled in a German University. You must have

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm doing some basic operations on large sparse matrices, for example getting a row. it takes close to 30 seconds on a 3Ghz machine, and shots the memory usage up to the sky. I suspect there are dense intermediary steps (which, if true would defeat the purpose of trying to use sparse representaitons). As much as I try understanding the

Hi, I'm trying to install R with atlas in ubuntu karmic 64. I do a lot of matrix operations so I need performance. Doing grep sse2 /proc/cpuinfo tells me tha my CPU supports SSE2. But I don't see libatlas3gf-sse2 in the package repositories. Also, there seem to be some gotchas on how to install atlas, even the vanilla one, as described here:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, A follow up to my previous post. It'd be good to have syntax highlighting in the html help pages. There is highlight (http://www.andre-simon.de/) which seems to be open source. Since code is delimited in the help file format, it should not be too difficult to run a highlighting program (actually, vim and emacs do this too) recursively and

Hi, Chm (compiled help) is a microsoft invention. It's the default help system under windows, but not so under linux. I found that (at times) I like better how chm help looks. Since there are chm viewers under linux, using chm help files should be possible. Has anybody tried to set R so it opens chm by default? I'm sure there's some flag or Rprofile var that could get this done.

Dear R users, People who uses vim in Linux/Unix may be interested in checking the plugin for R that I'm developing: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2628 The plugin includes omni completion for R objects, code indentation and communication with R running in a terminal emulator (xterm or gnome-terminal). This last feature was already present in Johannes Ranke's plugin.

I have been playing around with the wxRuby TreeCtrl for a couple of weeks now and I can''t figure out how to get the scrolling to work. I believe it has scrolling built in but I can''t get the to show up. I can place the TreeCtrl in a ScrolledWindow and scroll around over the tree but that breaks TreeItem visibility checks because the TreeCtrl doesn''t know about

We have an app (Online Bible) that works under WINE except you have to disable inertial/momentum scrolling on the Mac; otherwise when you scroll in the app's window, scrolling never stops until it reaches the end of all text in the window. Surely others have run into this behavior? Is there a way to disable inertial scrolling within the WINE app window, without having to disable it

I have two fixes in a text file. I created the diff using "diff -u", so I hope you can apply the patch. The file is attached. I never could get my optional ''scroll when the dragged element goes outside the scrolled element'' thing to work. I got it to start scrolling correctly, but then it would start making increasingly big jumps and basically scroll out of control.

I have a <select multiple="multiple"> list with a fixed height. It contains several <option> elements that extend well past the viewable area. I added code that would track which options had been previously selected so that users could select multiple items without holding the ctrl key. I''m storing the previous selections in an array whose index corresponds with

Is anyone working on a scrolling table or div such as the openrico livegrid demo? I''m looking to develop (much like smashbox''s scrolling images) a collection of thumbnails that you can scroll horizontally. I''ve got a non-prototype.js example but I wanted to check to see if anyone was closer than I to this. BTW, I will be finishing up my slider code shortly and

I''m currently working on a method to implement a scroller for a div using a slider. I need to do this as an alternative to making a stylish flash scroller with content. The main advantage of this method is to allow the ability to style the sliding elements cross browser (and maybe as a future add on... the ability to have a scroll.to for a scrolling div). This is my first attempt at

UsRs, When accessing help by typing, for example, > ?read.table the up and down keys do no longer scroll the help page. The page-up and page-down keys also do not work any longer. I can scroll down by pressing the d key, but I cannot scroll up by pressing the b key (although it should work according to the text displayed when you press the h key). I'm not sure whether this question is

Hi, I wonder what kind of interest there is on Test Driven Development (TDD) in R. Test Driven Development consists of writing the test before the function, and iteratively build the function until it passes the test. Python and Ruby (specially Ruby) have very strong test-oriented cultures. In fact, in Ruby at least the custom is to do TDD and lately Behavior-driven development (BDD). In BDD,

Re, Would anyone happen to know how to make sortable/draggable scroll down the page while moving the object if the page happens to be larger than the screen size? These functions seem to work only within the visible working space. Right now I have workaround whereby I have an omnipresent DIV on the screen to which I drop an element, then scroll down in the browser to a certain point, and then
