Greetings: I've installed Rtools, MikTeX, perl, minGW, and HTML Help Workshop, and have succeeded in making, checking (using R CMD check mypkg) then building the simple example package.skeleton(list=c("f","g","d","e"), name="mypkg") R CMD build mypkg produces a tarball. I don't know how to get a zip file.
But when I try to Install package(s) from local zip files, I get this error message: Error in gzfile(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning messages: 1: error -1 in extracting from zip file 2: cannot open compressed file 'mypkg/DESCRIPTION' But when I click on that file in the tarball it opens and shows me what I expected. I had hoped that I had weathered the hard part - building the package - but I still need some help: 1) How do I get a zipped file, rather than a tarball, 2) How do I install what I've built? Thanks in advance. Charles Annis, P.E.
