Hello, I am looking for more information about lazy loading introduced in R 2.0.0. Doing ?lazyLoad I got some and there is a 'see also' section that points to 'makeLazyLoading'... But I cannot reach this page. My problem is: I recompiled a library that uses a lot of functions from other libraries (of course I can give details if needed). I load it in my computer: library(svGUI),

Hi List, i am locking for a GUI for R. I have a Debian Woody 3.0 and running R 1.5.1. In office i am using SPSS 9.0 for several years now after Systat for short time and now i would use a statistic software under Linux at home. It seems that R could be that what i am looking for, but i have problems to understand how it works or better explained i would prefer using a good grafic interface.

Hello all, In one of my packages, I have the following warning with R-devel, but no problems with R 2.1.0, or R patched: ** checking Rd \usage sections ...

Hello, today I upgraded R to 2.10 and Tinn-R to 2.3.3.1. Tinn-R needs the package svIO, but it is not available anymore on the package lists. Every session I start R and chose the CRAN-Mirror I receive the following warning: Bitte einen CRAN Spiegel f?r diese Sitzung ausw?hlen --- Warnmeldung: In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) : package ?svIO? is not available Lade

This question is probably trivial, but I don't find the answer. I have code that is different for Windows, Unix/Linux and Mac OSX. The man page of .Platform tells that .Platform$OS.type is the right way to test for it... but it also tels that it returns either "windows" or "unix". Is Mac OS X reported as "unix"? If yes, how do I make the difference? Thanks,

Hello, Following a discussion initiated on r-devel, that mentions SciViews-R and other GUIs issues for R, I would like to make comments (and would be happy if these comments would initiate interesting initiatives). A big, big problem with SciViews-R is that a part of it is written in Visual Basic 6, a M$$$$ language, not supported any more, buggy, non transposable to other platforms, etc,

Hello all, Sorry for this email not directly related to R developement. I just come from a nice demonstration session from Scitegic about their Pipeline Pilot (PP) software, and especially their 'R collection' which brings R calculations into the software (http://www.scitegic.com/documents/RStats_Collection.pdf). I looked carefully on the way they do it: they pass data from PP to R

I also agree with Philippe Grosjean that there is a need to investigate the effects of different types of GUIs on software "usability". To do that, however, there is a need to develop a set of appropriate metrics, and to understand that the appropriateness of a given metric (and ultimately a given type of GUI) is likely to be conditional on the type of user. My sense is that the

HI: After following all the instructions on how to install the SciViews package from CRAN I still can't make the GUI show. Can someone give me a hint on how to do this? I have tried library(svGUI), library(svDialogs) and so on with the rest of the packages. I have also placed all the 'sv' packages in my Rprofile but nothing works. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Felipe D.

Hello Rusers, I have worked on a R Wiki page for solutions in exporting R graphs, especially, the often-asked questions: - How can I export R graphs in vectorized format (EMF) for inclusion in MS Word or OpenOffice outside of Windows? - What is the best solution(s) for post-editing/annotating R graphs. The page is at: http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:graphics-misc:export. I

OK, I have made a little search about this "problem" that apparently occurs only on Windows platform... (but I am sure most of you are already aware of it): the slow down is due to the adoption of a different algorithm for pow in mingw 3.x. This is motivated by some other changes in mingw. Here is a quote of Danny Smith that did this change: >When mingw changed default FPU settings

After a search session in Google, I found this page: http://www.prevx.com/filenames/X1993788672854780728-0/RGUI.EXE.html which classifies Rgui.exe (clearly stated as "R for Windows GUI front-end") in a database of virus, spyware and malware! No comments! Philippe Grosjean

Hello 1. a few months ago, I had sciviews working fine with R (rw2001) under windows XP 2. now, upgrading to rw2011, the stuff seems fine (every package installed),but I find a conflict when launching sciviews: - it runs, apparently - but when I try to work ("import/export In: text" for instance), it asks for Rcmdr ("Would you like to install it now?") 3. Rcmdr is already

Hello, This message is little off-topic in R-help. Sorry for that, but not all interested people are wired yet to r-sig-gui (http://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-gui).

Since then, the Web site recorded several
