Currently this page is set up to only search help page titles: line = line + document.SearchEngine.search

Just now I again had occasion to want nested describe lists in a documentation file. I found that the bug which I reported on 18 October, 2001 still persists.

Hello all, I was able to create R packages under windows XP in the past using the dynamic NAG C library for windows XP (Mark 6). Recently, I changed computers and I am now using the static NAG C library for windows XP (Mark 7) to create a simple R package (called "test") which simply returns random numbers simulated using repetitive calls to a NAG C routine (uniform random

Hello. I have what I know to be a simple question, but never having done anything like this it is pretty tough. I'm trying to write an R package. I have a collection of functions that I loaded into R and then used package.skeleton(). After editing everything in the resulting folder, call it NewPackage, I tried to follow along with some instructions I found for Windows users. I installed

R experts, I created a package X for R 1.8 that I want to re-install for 2.0.1. In addition to downloading/installing Perl and Rtools as directed in the README.packages file and ensuring that they appear in my path, I have modified X's DESCRIPTION file to include all required fields.

As there is nothing Debian-specific in this bug report (and the .deb of the JVW is not from Debian either), I am forwarding this to R-bugs. My recollection from recent discussions on the R mailing list is that currently /no/ browser other than Netscape supports the Java search engine -- is that correct or was there some Netscape derivative (galeon?) which does? Maybe the documentation should be
