[Rd] Trailing message on R CMD BATCH

2007-01-10 Thread Brian Ripley
Unix versions of R CMD BATCH have reported proc.time() unless the script 
ends in q().  E.g. if the input is 'search()' the output is

 invisible(options(echo = TRUE))
 search()
[1] .GlobalEnvpackage:stats package:graphics
[4] package:grDevices package:utils package:datasets
[7] package:methods   Autoloads package:base

 proc.time()
[1] 1.053 0.067 1.109 0.000 0.000


This was undocumented, and not shared by the Windows version.

Is it useful?
Do people want it retained?

I do find the timing useful and would prefer it to be retained unless it causes 
a problem elsewhere.

I do find that info to be useful and would very much appreciate if it is 
kept.

[Rd] wine and build difference between R.2.4.0 and R 2.4.1 windows binaries?

2007-01-10 Thread Hin-Tak Leung
Does anybody (most probably the core team) know if there is
any difference in how the official 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 binaries are
built?

Problem is, 2.4.0 loads with the wine (I tried a few recent
versions, and also used 2.3.x under wine from time to time),
but 2.4.1 won't.

Thanks.

I did not notice that this is only for unix version of R CMD BATCH. Since 
R CMD BATCH is prefered way to run things in background and usually for longer
time it is good to have this info. I would suggest to add this also in Windows
version.

[Rd] Compiling R-devel under Windows

2007-01-10 Thread apjaworski
Hello there,

I have a habit of compiling R-patched and R-devel every few days.
Recently, I noticed the following problem:

I downloaded both versions with Revision: 40421, Last Changed Date:
2007-01-09.  R-patched compiles with no problem.  R-devel compiles fine but
when it starts to make PDF documentation it generates the following (tail
of the make distribution output):

! pdfTeX warning (dest): name{Rfn.survival} has been referenced but does
not ex
ist, replaced by a fixed one

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/andyj/R-devel/src/gnuwin32'
make: *** [distribution] Error 2

It looks like the first version of refman.pdf gets generated fine and
something happens when it needs to run makeindex.  I tried to look at the
Makefile.win in doc/manuals but I cannot see anything obvious there.  In
any case, the makefiles are quite elabortae and interlinekd, so I probably
would not know how to fix them.

I am on Win2000.  I compile R using the Cygwin environment, but I have
MinGW installed and its executables are first on the search path.  I am
using MiKTeX and it is up-to-date.

Thanks in advance,

Andy

PS.  I seem to remember that this happened already a few versions ago.

Re: [Rd] Compiling R-devel under Windows

2007-01-10 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
You have an old snapshot.  R-devel r40430 seems fine.

You could have looked at the refman.log for informative output (no need to 
speculate: it was a help file that was provisional at the time).  Please 
don't expect all aspects of R-devel to work on all platforms at all times: 
It is

R version 2.5.0 Under development (unstable)

[Rd] Perhaps a stupid question about clipboards....

2007-01-10 Thread Byron Ellis
I have a stupid question. Why is the clipboard accessed through file()
and not, say, a clipboard() connection? Is there a good reason for
this or is it simply historical?
