I'm trying to compile R 2.0.0 on windows using cygwin. The program itself compiled fine (I added -mno-cygwin to compilation/linkage rules so that mingw runtime is used), but the build process fails to make packages. Here are the error messages: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- making bootstrap versions of packages ... ... done writing help

Greetings: I am trying to build R-2.0.1 from source on windows.

Hi, i would like to find out more on how Rgui works. Is there any documentation that details how RGui interfaces with the R language & environment. So, i would like to know things such as: - What language is RGui built in (source available?) - What language is RTerm built in? - how does the output of an R command get directed to the terminal window in RGui? It seems to me that RGui is RTerm

Dear developers, I have come across a (somewhat strange) change in the encoding of Sweave output from R-2.9.2pat to R-2.10.0beta (apparently specific to Rgui) on Windows installations. Of course, the NEWS file contains quite a few changes concerning encoding, but I was not able to locate an entry which explains the observed behaviour. I am not very familiar with encodings/locales/codepages,

Hi I have written a graphical user interface using tcltk. Now I would like to run it under rterm.exe with a batch file. I tried the following code written in a .bat file: d:\R\rw1071\bin\Rterm.exe --no-restore --no-save <d:\RGui.r> d:\RGui.out The problem is that rterm does open but the gui isn't running properly. After a few seconds rterm is closeing without doing anything more

FYI, via a bug report of one of my packages, I discovered that the following cases will hang Rterm when using TAB completion: CASE #1: Adding an empty default function for tail() causes Rterm on Windows to hang if one press TAB at the prompt: % Rterm -vanilla > tail.default <- function(...) {} > [PRESS TAB] Error in specialOpLocs(text) : (list) object cannot be coerced to type

I've just committed changes to R-devel (to become 1.9.0) to allow scripts to be invoked using the Unix-style "R CMD command" in Windows. "Rcmd command" will still work, but is no longer documented. A build incorporating these changes should show up on CRAN tomorrow. Running "R" by itself will start Rterm.exe. You still run Rgui to get the GUI version (or just

Dear all, On Windows XP with R 2.8.0, I get the error message below when I try install a package from the command line. (Installing as a local zip-file from the menu in the GUI works fine.) Could anybody point me towards the source (and solution) to the problem? Regards Søren --------------------------------------------------------------------------- C:\Dokumenter\Stat\RLSdevel>rcmd

Hello. When I try to use Rcmd INSTALL to install a package (whether my own or someone else's) for the Windows version of R, I get the following error: C:\>Rcmd INSTALL cluster_1.8.1.tar.gz ---------- Making package cluster ------------ adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION Fatal error: you must specify `--save', `--no-save' or `--vanilla' make[1]: *** [frontmatter] Error 2

I'm using R on Windows XP Professional SP2. I figured out the fix for my buffer overflow problem that did not allow me to use Rgui.exe for about two weeks. I would keep getting "console not found" and even when I uninstalled and re-installed got the same problem. Here's how the problem started. In Rgui.exe, I attempted to get more visible output in the buffer (I wanted

Full_Name: David Lennartsson Version: 1.7.1, 1.8.0 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (62.119.45.80) A very minor bug, but here it comes. On doing something as simple as cat("1st test string\r2nd\n") the console in RGui on Windows do not perform a CR on '\r'. This is very annoying if you for example want to have a simple progress meter when running a batch job. It works

Hi, Duncan: I just did "plot(1:2)" in Rgui.exe, and that copied fine as a metafile into MS Word via the clipboard. Then I exited and restarted Rterm.exe under ESS and tried it again. This time, I got a blank image copied into MS Word. However, after I modified the Lattice defaults via, "trellis.par.set('background', list('white'));

I've just had the error below while trying to install a package from source under R2.2.1 and Windows XP. I recall encountering this sporadically in the past. It is a pretty confusing message and took me quite some time to figure out; I've seen queries about it on the R site search, but couldn't find a reply. There's an attempted diagnosis and suggested cure below.

Hi, I am using the caretNWS package to train some supervised regression models (gbm, lasso, random forest and mars). The problem I have encountered started when my training data set increased in the number of predictors and the number of observations. The training data set has 347 numeric columns. The problem I have is when there are more then 2500 observations the 5 sleigh objects start but do

Hello, I am using EC2 to launch several instances. On each instance, I perform the following commands yum -y install R (installs R-2.6) R CMD javareconf sleep 10 wget rpackage.tgz R CMD INSTALL rpackage.tgz Now, rpackage.tgz needs to be built with jni libraries. When the instance is fully up, i log in and check if rpackage was successfully installed and find out it wasn't. Running R CMD

Dear R users, I have a .RData which contains .Last object as follows: .Last <- function () { savehistory(file = ".Rhistory") } In this directory, if I issue the following command Rterm --save < mycmds.q to execute commands in mycmds.q and to save results in .RData, I got the following error message towards the end of the execution: Error in savehistory(file) :

I'm running an R script in Rterm and would like the user to be prompted for input as in: id <- readline("Please enter ID: ") myfunction(id) . . . etc. This works when I run one line at a time in RGui, but not when I try to run the script in Rterm (I'm working with R 2.2.0 in Windows Server 2003). Is there any way to do this? Mikkel
