I hope I will be pardoned for asking what may be a dumb question on this thread. Recently I noticed that when I tried my established method of adding a package to R (i.e. download the *.tar.gz file to a directory of similar files and INSTALL), I was no longer able to do this. I did eventually find the function install.packages() and it worked very nicely, thanks. However, I'd like to know if it is still possible to download packages from CRAN or other sites. For example, I run R on a little old laptop that has no Internet connection whatever, and it will be a bit of a problem keeping it up to date.
