Hi Ted, You need to unzip and untar the files that are inside that file, and then build the package using R CMD build --binary PackageName. However, for compiling a package under a windows environment you will need Rtools2.10 from Duncan Murdoch, along with Miktex, and html workshop from microsoft. All that is free. I suggest you to read tutorials on how to build packages from sources in Windows. This website might be a good start point http://www.biostat.wisc.edu/~kbroman/Rintro/Rwinpack.html.
Hope this helps, Julian Ramirez Research Assistant International Centre for Tropical Agriculture, CIAT On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 11:29 PM, Chang, C-Y. <changcy.m...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm using windowsXP and R 2.10.0.
