Hi Running R v2.0 on SuSe linux 8.2. I'm trying to build a package (which built perfectly on Windows...) on Linux, and I ran: R CMD check mypackage I got: * checking mypackage-maual.tex ... ERROR LaTeX errors when creating DVI version This typically indicates Rd problems OK, there are no problems with my Rd - I got 3 warnings but they were all expected, and the whole package builds find

Hi I have a package which was built using R 1.9.1 and everything worked fine. I recently upgraded to R 2.0.1 and tried to re-install my package - and I got: Error in library(mypackage) : 'mypackage' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? So I tried rebuilding it using my new version of R: R CMD BUILD --binary mypackage hhc: not found cp: cannot stat `mypackage.chm': No

Dear List, I have a problem building an R package using R 1.7.1 that I cannot resolve myself. R CMD check tells me that functions I documented properly in Rd-files are not documented and gives a TeX error at the end, altough the Rd files check is OK. I have three fucntions, one gets through without complaining, the other two don't. All the docu for the example data is also OK. I went through

I am trying to compose some documentation for a package I hope to release soon. However when I do the following: R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf mypackage.Rd I get two mainly blank pages prepended to the top of the document - the only text on either (at the top of the first page) is as follows: hyperindex,colorlinks,pagebackref,linktocpage,plainpages=false,linkcolor=Blue

Hi Thanks once again for your help, I do appreciate it..... however.... Here is what I get with your test.... (under tcsh - i normally use bash, but I will keep everything the same) users/mwatson> env http_proxy=http://wwwcache.bbsrc.ac.uk:8080/ R >options(internet.info=0) >update.packages() trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES' unable to connect to

OK, I really am struggling with this one! Forgive me if I am being stupid.... I am running R 1.7.1 on Suse Linux 8.1. I connect to the internet through a proxy so I have: IAHC-LINUX03:~ # echo $http_proxy wwwcache.bbsrc.ac.uk:8080 IAHC-LINUX03:~ # echo $HTTP_PROXY wwwcache.bbsrc.ac.uk:8080 just in case ;-) SO, i go into R and I get: >

Hi When I use plot(hclust(dist..)...)...) etc to create a dendrogram of a hierarchial cluster analysis, I end up with a vertical tree. What do I need to do to get a horizontal tree? Also, my users are used to seeing trees who's leaves all "end" at the same place (eg. Like in minitab). Is this possible in R? Thanks Mick Michael Watson Head of Informatics Institute for Animal

Hi I can't get R to connect to the internet. I am running R 1.7.1 on Windows XP and whenever I try to download packages etc from within R using the internet, it fails. OK so I am behind a firewall and use a proxy server.... SO, if I go to my MS-DOS prompt and type: RGui.exe --internet2 everything works.... BUT i can't set up a shortcut for this as Windows (I hate Windows) complains

Hi First a simple question to do with plot(). How do I change the x-axis labels on a plot? For example, I am plotting each row of a matrix, and I want each row to be a line on my graph. Simple really. Eg: plot(sg[1,], type="l") When I do this, the x-axis is labelled 1:38, as I have 38 columns in my matrix. When I do: plot(sg[1,order(sg[1,])], type="l") Ideally I would

Following on from my previous mail! plot(1:10,1:10) mtext("title", side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) This works as expected and puts the font in italics. tag <- "A)" suffix <- "genea::" plot(1:10,1:10) mtext(bquote(.(tag) ~ Delta * .(suffix)), side=3, adj=0, font=3, cex=1.5) Here, the font isn't in italics, it's normal. I presume this is some

Dear R-specialists, I am trying to create a Makefile that will first convert all my .Rnw files into .tex files and then, that will run the LaTeX compiler to produce a pdf document. This issue has been discussed before. Hence, I've basically adapted a Makefile I found at http://n4.nabble.com/R-Sweave-R-and-complex-latex-projects-td810020.html#a810023 to make it compatible with a Windows

Hi Sorry to ask such a basic question. I have a list, each element of which is a vector of two values. What I actually want is a matrix with two columns, and one row per element of the list. Obviously I have tried as.matrix(), and as.vector() but I didn't expect the latter to work. I feel so lame asking this. Any suggestions? Mick

In Solaris with R-1.7.0beta from 2003-04-01 I still have a problem with "R CMD check" after I build a package: * creating setRNG-manual.tex ... OK * checking setRNG-manual.tex ... ERROR Could not create DVI version. This typically indicates Rd problems. I can manually gererate the dvi from setRNG-manual.tex, so I don't think my latex is defective as I speculated last week. The file

After configure, make and make check on a linux Suse 7.3 box, I run make dvi and make info with no problems but get a lot of garbage to my screen during make pdf. Is this normal? Is there a bug in this part of the installation? This is part of what I get on the screen: humboldt:/usr/local/R-patched # make pdf make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/R-patched/doc' make[2]: Entering

I would like to print some tables and figures to a PDF device on a CentOS 5 vps. However, I cannot seem to get the latex function from Hmisc working. I followed the example, and got an error: sh: xdvi: command not found. I tried installing the 'tetex-xdvi' linux package, and now it returns: Error: Can't open display. I guess the reason for this is that the machine is a VPS terminal, so

Hi A simple question again, but I can't find it by google-ing R-help. Quite simply, I want to read in the contents of a number of files, using read.table, and assign the results to elements of a vector/array/list/whatever. I want it so that, if my vector/array/whatever is "pos", that pos[1] will give me the first data frame, pos[2] will give me the second etc... Kind of basic

I'm using R 2.2.0 on an up-to-date version of Fedora Core 4 with the latest version of Hmisc. When I run an example from the latex function I get the following: > x <- matrix(1:6, nrow=2, dimnames=list(c('a','b'),c('c','d','enLine 2'))) > x c d enLine 2 a 1 3 5 b 2 4 6 > latex(x) # creates x.tex in working directory sh:

Hi We have touched on this before, but I don't think I quite got it right. So I have a list, each element of which is a a vector of 2 numbers: > l2 $cat000_a01 [1] 0.3429944 4.5138244 $cat000_a02 [1] 0.1929336 4.3064944 $cat000_a03 [1] -0.2607796 4.1551591 What I actually want to convert this into is a matrix with the names (cat000_a01 etc) as row names, the first element of each of

Hi I've been reading the help for by and aggregate but can't get my head round how to do this. I have a data frame - the first three columns are replicate measurements, then the next 3 are replicates etc up to 36 (so 12 variables with 3 replicate measurements each). I want to compute the mean for each of the 12 variables, so that, for each row, I have 12 means. A grouping variable
