Gerrit,

OK, well I completely love the idea that the student version would be server-based, but RStudio seems less user-friendly to me than Deducer. I don't see a data editor or dropdown menus. Deducer feels a lot like SPSS to me (again, no offense intended).

Hi,

here comes my favorite: RStudio (rstudio.org). It is not yet on the sciviews list.

It does not have as many clickable functions as RCommander, or RKward, but has some nice menus for beginners -e.g. for reading data - and more advanced users - e.g. extracting functions . The biggest advantage is that it can be set up to run on a server, so students only need a browser to access R.

Best
Gerrit

OK, looks good if I can get it installed. Also seems to completely reload
tons of files that I already have.

You may also be interested in Deducer http://www.deducer.org, which is in
use in statistics classes in Psychology departments.

Yes, this seems like a really good alternative. Somewhat less elegant than
SPSS, but free.  I will test this possibility.  Thanks Ian and all of you
who make R possible.

While we are at listing our favorite R GUIs, I'll throw RKWard into the ring:
http://rkward.sf.net .

I assume you are aware of the list of R GUI projects at
http://rwiki.sciviews.org/doku.php?id=guis:projects ? Also, the Journal of Statistical Software is planning a special issue on R GUI (scheduled to be published some time this year; http://www.jstatsoft.org/). You may want to
look out for that.

Regards
Thomas
