"Best practice" is a bit contentious, but several people have found that the tcltk package offers a path of low resistance. Just do library(tcltk) and e.g. demo(tkdensity) or demo(tkttest) to see whether it is of use to you (study the code for the demo). In the Windows GUI, there are also features to add items to the menubar, using winMenuAdd and friends. These aren't portable to other architectures, though. > Thanks! > > > -- > Noah Silverman > UCLA Department of Statistics > 8117 Math Sciences Building > Los Angeles, CA 90095 > > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > 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. -- Peter Dalgaard, Professor, Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ 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.
