How to make legend with line+ character
Dear all, I have a multiline plot with each line labeled with a different letter. But I'm not able to make the legend display the same kind of pattern '-a-', instead the letter is overwritten by the line. A simpler legend with only the letter is not very visible and the pt.bg does nothing with letters. Any idea? plot(1:10,10:1,lty=1,type='b', lwd=2,pch='a')

Table or file as STDIN to the R Script
Hi all, I am trying to call the R script/ R Program via my Shell Script. I need to pass a file to the R script as an argument. When I am trying to do that I am getting error and only first line of the file is being read.

optim: abnormal termination in lnsrch (resend)
[sorry, forgot some details...] I'm using optim(param, fun, method='L-BFGS-B', lower=lo, upper=up) to minimize a certain function. Often the minimization ends with the message: ERROR: ABNORMAL_TERMINATION_IN_LNSRCH What is optim() trying to say? What have I to change in my function to make the minimization succeed? Do you think using BBoptim() instead of optim() changes anything?

Location of libraries in Windows
I'm preparing to install 2.13, so I need a clarification about package location on disk. On window the packages I have installed are under C:\Users\mvalle\R\win-library\2.12 and the ones that come with R are under "C:\Program Files\R\library" If I execute update.packages() from the R gui, it fails because it finds e.g. Matrix as a package that should be updated but the process

Can I disable Cairo?
On Linux 2.13 by default links cairo, so png() uses it for rendering. One of my users has performance problem, so ask if it possible to temporary disable cairo during png() rendering so it reverts to grGraphics. My workaround for now is to configure R without cairo, but this affects all users that are forced to load and use CairoDevice if they wants better quality. I want to avoid this, is it

density() vs. KernSmooth::bkde
Any advice when to use denstity() and when the KernSmooth package bkde() to smooth a histogram? No specific problem to use either one, but I'm curious why there are two so similar implementations.

Subsample points for mclust
Hi all! I have an ordered vector of values. The distribution of these values can be modeled by a sum of Gaussians. So I'm using the package 'mclust' to get the Gaussians's parameters for this 1D distribution. It works very well, but, for input sizes above 100.000 values it starts taking really forever. Unfortunately my dataset has around 4.6M values... My question: is it
