The document http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~kwan022/rinfo.php gives an excellent step by step description of how to make an R package for Windows.

He did not find a solution to his problems on the R-help archives and hopes that one of the R gurus will be able to help. He has a directory "CO2" which should contain all the required files and directories: DATA: DESCRIPTION MAN: R: README SRC: The following command is run in a windows console: C:\Program Files\R\rw1071\bin\rcmd INSTALL D:\CO2 Then he gets the following error (approximate translation of a French message) : "Perl is not recognized as an internal or external command, an executable file or a command file" Perl has of course been installed on the PC and my colleague has the "Tools" file. He does not know what is wrong although he suspects that environment variables (which ones?) must be changed. Any help would be appreciated. jp -- Jean-Pierre Gattuso | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.obs-vlfr.fr/~gattuso ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help KSS Ltd Seventh Floor St James's Buildings 79 Oxford Street Manchester M1 6SS England Company Registration Number 2800886 Tel: +44 (0) 161 228 0040 Fax: +44 (0) 161 236 6305 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.kssg.com The information in this Internet email is confidential and m...{{dropped}} ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
