Greetings: I?m running R version 2.4.0 (2006-10-03) on WindowsXP in a 3 year old DELL box with 2 gig. I have successfully created a zipped package, mh1823_2.1.zip, using R CMD build --binary mh1823. R CMD build --binary automatically adds a file, mh1823, containing .First.lib and its default function definition. I would like to supply my own .First.lib function to create menus when the

I?ve been using this routine for several years. I?m sorry, I don?t remember where I got it. It works as it should, viz. it blanks the R console. But it requires package rcom and now that requires rscproxy. cls <- function () { require(rcom) wsh <- comCreateObject("Wscript.Shell") comInvoke(wsh, "SendKeys", "\f") invisible(wsh) } > cls()

Dear R-ians: I'm running R2.9.2 on a 6 year old Windows XP DELL with 2 Gig RAM and a 3MHz Pentium 4 chip. I've written a package using the User Menus Under Windows commands (winMenuAdd, etc). It works very well. I have 6 test cases and running any one of them requires many selections form the menus and some keyboard entry, and it takes me hours to exercise them all to see

Greetings, R-ians: I would like to know which version or R was used to create a given package. I think I remember seeing that topic discussed recently but cannot find it among my notes. Can anyone tell me how to determine which version of R created a package? Thanks. Charles Annis, P.E. <mailto:Charles.Annis@StatisticalEngineering.com> Charles.Annis@StatisticalEngineering.com

Greetings: This should be easy but it isn't. I have a home-brew package that works fine, with compiled html help pages, all 150 of them. I want to make a similar package but not from scratch since only a half-dozen routines are changed. So I created a new directory, copied the old package into it and changed the name to newSTUFF. I changed the names of all help pages too, as weill

Greetings: I'm running R2.6.2 on a WinXP DELL box with 2 gig RAM. I have created a new glm link function to be used with family = binomial. The function works (although any suggested improvements would be welcome), logit.FC <- function(POD.floor = 0, POD.ceiling =1) { if (POD.floor < 0 | POD.floor > 1) stop ("POD.floor must be between zero and one.") if

D'oh! I've been using cat() but somehow never got the bigger picture. Thanks!!! Charles Annis, P.E.

R-ians: After some effort I coerced my code to do what I want but my syntax is a kludge. Suggestions on more elegant syntax? par <- NIM.results$par do.call("Draw.NIM.POD.curve", list(par[1], par[2], par[3], par[4], par[5], a.hat.decision, .... et cetera ... It seems that I should be able to avoid defining the variable "par" and then specifying each of its elements,

Greetings, R-Helpers: I am trying to build a package on WinXP, something that I have done before, but infrequently, and have recently updated both the Rtools and the version of R being used. My test case fails after successfully creating the compiled html files with this error message: . . . Created c:\DOCUME~1\CHARLE~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\Rbuild142865646\March18\chm\March18.chm, 41,494

Greetings R-ians: Searching the Searchable Mail Archives I discovered that ctrl L will clear the Rgui screen, which is what I'd like to do from a print (or some similar) statement. Is there a mechanism to use the ctrl L clear-screen sequence in a script, or print statement? Thanks for your counsel. Charles Annis, P.E.

Dear R Helpers: I am trying to annotate a plot. The following code snippet works, but it is kind of a kludge since it adds the partial derivative symbols after creating the plotmath frac(). Is there a more elegant way to write a partial derivative? dev.off() plot(NA, xlim=c(-3,3), ylim=c(0,1.6), xlab="", ylab="", tck=-0.015) text(1.6, 1, expression(paste("slope =

Greetings, R-ians: I am sure I am missing something obvious. How do I provide a CITATION file for my home-brew package, so that it will be packaged using R CMD build --binary myPackage? I have placed a CITATION file in the myPackage directory along with the DESCRIPTION file, but it is ignored. Thanks for your guidance. Charles Annis, P.E. Charles.Annis at StatisticalEngineering.com

Dear R-Helpers: I'm running R version 2.8.1 on a 1 year old HP Pavilion with a AMD Athelon 64 Dual Core Processor 4800+ 2.50GHz chip, Vista Home Premium SP1, and 2 GB RAM. I can't add packages (even running as Administrator) because I can't connect to a CRAN mirror. > chooseCRANmirror() (After nearly a minute I see the menu, and after any selection I immediately see) Warning

Greetings R-ians: I know what doesn?t work but I don?t know why, nor how to remedy things. I have a character string containing "." which I want to replace with " " gsub(".", " ", file.label) replaces the every character with a blank. However gsub(".xls", " ", file.label) replaces ".xls" with a blank as expected. It appears

I have a vector, (not a list) > repeated.measures.FACTOR.names [1] "Insp1" "Insp2" "Insp3" "Insp4" "Insp5" "Insp6" "Insp7" "Insp8" "Insp9" and would like to convert this into a single string "Insp1,Insp2,Insp3,Insp4,Insp5,Insp6,Insp7,Insp8,Insp9" I can do that with a loop, but isn't there

Greetings, R-ians: I'm using R 2.3.1 on WindowsXP. I need to find the name of a file at the end of a sting that contains the path + file, with the problematic "\\" as separators. The string looks something like this: "C:\\Documents and Settings\\myName\\My Documents\\R Projects\\Project1\\file.name.csv" What I want is "file.name.csv" Currently I use the

Greetings: I'm trying to annotate a plot and find that I cannot correctly paste elements. When I do this: text(1.4, 1., paste("conditional density", "\n", "of y, given ", expression(x == x[0])), adj=c(0.,0.)) The expression is not properly displayed. Resolving this is not urgent because the workaround is simple: text(1.4, 1., paste("conditional

Greetings: I would like to use tcl/tk with R, and have read "A Primer on the R-Tcl/Tk Package" by Peter Dalgaard in Rnews, Volume 1/3, September 2001. Are there more recent do-it-yourself instructions available? I have been unsuccessful with the example in the tcltk2 package due to a syntax error. I think that I have isolated the problem to this code snippet: for (i in

Friends: I am a long-time R user, learning tcl/tk, and am tying myself in knots over something that should be simple. I want to create a frame and put that frame inside the toplevel frame. This works (i.e. it places text in col 1, and the corresponding entry box in column 2) and later frame.2 resides where it should in the toplevel frame. tkgrid(tklabel(frame.2, text="FACTOR column
