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< ------------------ ;

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

-----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

Hi, I've realized that the scrolling behavior in View() is unlike most other applications. It seems that the minimum scroll size is very large for large objects( i.e., a vector of 1M integers), and it might be that this scroll is proportional to the size of the object. Try this: a = 1:1000000 View(a) Click once on the scroll arrow down. It will move to item 1001. It could be that the scroll

-----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

-----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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, I found an interesting thread discussing R and other packages here: http://anyall.org/blog/2009/02/comparison-of-data-analysis-packages-r-matlab-scipy-excel-sas-spss-stata/ Plenty of well-reasoned comments. I thought it may be informative for people on this list. Best, - -Jose - -- Jose Quesada, PhD. Max Planck Institute, Center for

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, There are many sites to get bite-sized chuncks of code. The nice thing is that they use syntax highlighting. Examples: http://dpaste.com/ http://pastie.org/ http://pastebin.com/ Twitter with a link to a syntax highlighting site would do wonders. There are plugins for most (good) editors to post directly to the site from the editor.

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.

Has anyone succeeded in getting a parallel BLAS, such as Goto's BLAS, installed on a machine running Ubuntu 11.10? I currently have the libatlas3gf-base package installed on a machine with an AMD Athlon X4 processor. I tried to install the libopenblas-base and libopenblas-dev packages but there seemed to be a glich related to having both libopenblas and libatlas3gf installed so that when I

Hi, I'd like to install the optimized libraries on my Thinkpad with an Intel Core Solo chip, which apparently supports the following instruction sets: MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3 instruction sets, XD-Bit. In a recent r-help message, the following was said (by Dirk I think): <quote> Yes, on Ubuntu, use 'apt-get install atlas3-base' for basic tuned Atlas, or 'apt-get install

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,

I am running wine 1.1.29 in kubuntu karmic-9.10 64-bit, and I am having a problem with audio in wine -- namely, there is none. The problem seems to be that in jaunty, there are several files installed in /usr/lib32/alsa-lib that are needed to support audio in wine, as part of the ia32-libs package. In karmic, those files are not present in the package -- there are only a couple of bluetooth

Hello. I've tried to install R on ubuntu and all succeeded untill I searched for the icon to execute, simply didn't appear anywhere.
