And the same to you! I don't know whether you can easily find the same readymade for Windows, but you could always make one from the Linux file, since it is a plain text file. I have it in /etc/dictionaries-common/words You might need to DOSify it first (i.e. end lines with CRLF instead of just LF), though I don't know how Windows reacts to Unix text files these days. In that case (in Linux): cp /etc/dictionaries-common/words words.txt unix2dos words.txt unix2dos is an old program which is not present on all Linux distributions. Maybe you don't need it anyway, in which case just do the 'cp' (to get the extension ".txt"). And are you going to share your R program?
