Calling the command 'R RHOME' does not return anything. > This might be because R.exe is nowhere in your Path." After installing R on a windows platform you need to add the path to the R binaries in the windows "path" environment variable open control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables -> path the click "edit" and then add in the end a ";" and then the path to R binaries, ex: "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.9.1\bin" you will need to reboot to see the effect of the changes > I use Windows XP, QGIS 1.3.0.

If I'm not wrong now there are other two dependencies, R packages "shapefiles" and "gpclib". I believe you'll need R 2.10 to install the gpclib library. Using R 2.10 it will allow you to use other cool R based tools in qgis, like the "manageR" and the "spatial data analisys for point pattern" plugins. > However, in the QGIS Wiki page of HomeRange plugin, it is written > that "libraries MUST be installed with the OSGeo4W installer".

This means that if you installed qgis (and consequently python) with the osgeo4w installer, then you'll need to install the required python modules with the same osgeo4w installer (you'll find them in the "libs" section of the installer wizard). It is my opinion that actually installing qgis with the osgeo4w installer is better: easier to manage, to update (try qgis 1.4, it is a major update since 1.3) and you have all what you need a few mouse clicks away. cheers -- Giovanni -- _______________________________________________ AniMov mailing list [email protected] http://lists.faunalia.it/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/animov
