Hi,
Is an R package built under Unix (package.tar.gz) could be installed
on other platforms like windows or Mac? The compressed tar file
(.tar.gz) built under Unix doesn't seem to be uncompressed under
windows (unzip under windows instead of gunzip). How to proceed?
If it has only R code then on a Mac the Archive Utility.app would
decompress a tar.gz file and give you a package folder that you could
put into the appropriate location in your Library. If it has compiled
code then no, forget it. There must be ways to ungzip and untar files
in Windows.
