[R] Installing quantstrat
I would like to try to run the quantstrat package (located here: https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=316). However, if I try to load quantstrat, I get a warning that it is not available for R v3.0.1, so perhaps that is the end of it. Does anyone know if it is possible to run quantstrat with the current version of R? __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
Re: [R] Installing quantstrat
Thanks. Since quantstrat showed a Last change date of only 6 days ago and a Build status of Current, I blithely assumed that the command that is shown for installing it would work: install.packages(quantstrat, repos=http://R-Forge.R-project.org;) Installing package into ‘/Users/ihf/Library/R/3.0/library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning: unable to access index for repository http://R-Forge.R-project.org/bin/macosx/contrib/3.0 package ‘quantstrat’ is available as a source package but not as a binary Warning message: package ‘quantstrat’ is not available (for R version 3.0.1) Based on the posting you referred to on stackoverflow, I need to download the SVN version and then see if I can build it. Although, I presume that if it were that simple, why would the version crated a week ago not work?

Re: [R] Installing quantstrat
Thanks for your help! I got quantstrat working after building it along with the FinancialInstrument and blotter packages (as well as foreach).

It looks like they're building with 3.0.2, but I'm not sure that matters. The easiest thing to do it just check out the source and build it yourself.

[R] Sending a matrix in an email
I have a matrix which has colnames and I would like to send this matrix using sendmailR. How can I convert this simple matrix to a format which can be used as the body variable in sendmailR? I see how I can create a file attachment using mime_part but I would like to send the matrix in the body of the email. The matrix looks like: ABD DEF GHI JKL MNO TOT [1,] 0.44 0.81 1.67 0.37 0.31 -1.18 All the conversions I have tried end up sending the matrix without the colnames.

Re: [R] Sending a matrix in an email
Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried dput and it did not produce what sendmailR requires for the body parameter. Here is a simplified version of what I need to do: x=matrix(c(1,2,3),1,3) x [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,]123 colnames(x)=c(a,b,c) x a b c [1,] 1 2 3 dput(x) structure(c(1, 2, 3), .Dim = c(1L, 3L), .Dimnames = list(NULL, c(a, b, c))) I want to send x in sendmailR(to,from,x) and have it look more or less like the output above.

Re: [R] Sending a matrix in an email
I thought that I had provided an example of what I wanted to do but in any case, capture.output seems to work, as in sendmailR(to,from, capture.output(matrix_to_send)) I'm sure that there are myriad other ways (I tried print, which is mentioned in FAQ 7.16 but it doesn't work in this context) Thanks for your help.

Re: [R] Sending a matrix in an email
I understand what you are saying. I just didn't think that showing a sendmailR with a matrix as the body of the message would have been very helpful since it is the fact that the received email has no content that is the problem and that would not have shown up in the R console output.
