Re: [Rd] Start-up messages when Importing from a package
The message is from maptools (as it says), not sp. No, there is nothing you can do when dependent packages put out messages.

Re: [Rd] Best practices for writing R functions
The fact that R doesn't automatically copy the function argument is very useful when you mainly want to pass arguments to another function. Thanks to all of you for mentioning this! Another trick to reduce verbosity of code (and focus on algorithm logic rather than boilerplate code) is to maintain a global copy of variables (in the global environment) which makes them visible to all functions (where appropriate, of course). Once the development and testing is finished, one can tidy things up and modify the function prototypes, add lines for unpacking lists inside functions, etc. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Best-practices-for-writing-R-libraries-tp3686674p3688850.html Sent from the R devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel

[Rd] default par
Hello dear R-developers, two questions on an otherwise magnificent program: 1) Is there a way to set defaults for par differently than R offers normally? I for example would like to have las default to 1. (or in the same style, sometimes type in plot() could be "l" per default). Tthe following post desribes pretty much exactly that: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-March/126646.html It was written four years ago, but it seems like there has been no real elegant solution. Did I just miss something there? If so, could someone give me an update? If not, is there a chance that such a feature would be added to future R-versions? I could live with the idea to assign the par$element default in Rprofile.site. 2) Would it appear sensible to have R give a warning, when points() is used, and some/all values are out of plotting range in the active device? It has happened some times that I needed quite a bit of time to figure out why nothing was plotted. Such a warning (or maybe even a beep?) would give users the clue to look at the values right away... (What I mean is this: plot(1:10) ; points(11,3) just in case it's unclear) Thanks ahead for pondering, and again: R ist the most beautiful thing I discovered in the last three years.

Re: [Rd] Problem with creating default NAMESPACE on FreeBSD
On 22.07.2011 14:50 (UTC+1), Prof Brian Ripley wrote: One possibility is that you are building from a tarball snapshot without mentioning it, and the (unspecified) tarball is incomplete. For R-devel using tarballs is not a wise idea: they are really only checked carefully in pre-release periods. (One of the checks is that AFAIR CRAN builds from the tarballs, but CRAN is not manned at present.) But as far as I can the 'make dist' procedure does work now and did at some point in the last week. On Fri, 22 Jul 2011, Prof Brian Ripley wrote: It does not seem to happen to anyone else, including me on FreeBSD. Is this a completely clean install? src/library/datasets/Makefile definitely installs a NAMESPACE file as part of the mkR1 target, so I would check that you have a src/library/datasets/NAMESPACE file in your sources. (There was a short window on the 16th when it happened as a commit for src/library/datasets/NAMESPACE was missed at first.) Many thanks for answering and sorry for the late reaction. We had some trouble in business yesterday. It was not a totally clean installation before. I only deinstalled the old R version before installing the new one in the same place (make deinstall / make reinstall with a selfmade port math/R-devel for testing purposes). Other packages etc. had not been deleted before. I forgot to mention that there were warnings in the build for several packages, like that: installing to /usr/ports/math/R-devel/work/R-devel/library/mgcv/libs ** R ** data ** inst ** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ... ** testing if installed package can be loaded During startup - Warning message: package 'datasets' in options("defaultPackages") was not found BUT: Today I tried again with newest version r56478 and surprisingly, all that problems disappeared. Even no more warnings at build time. For sureness I checked again older versions (between 15.07. and 21.07) but the build warnings there exist, with version r56478 they went away. Rainer Hurling P.S.: Thanks for the hint with the problems of the tarball. I had not been aware of it. In this case here it (mostly) also works with the tarball version.
