Hello again. Here is another question that I am puzzled about: I had the (incorrect) impression that if I had Rtools on a Windows machine that I could use any tar.gz package. However, that is not true.
In particular, I was looking at the rPython package. I do indeed have Python on this machine. But when I did R CMD INSTALL rPython, I got an error message that said, "this is a Unix package". Interesting. Should I just stay with my Ubuntu laptop and behave?
