The windows replacement is R-library-grDevices-libs-winCairo_20150122.zip in http://sourceforge.net/projects/outmodedbonsai/files/R/
The cairo replacements are just two bundles, windows or OS X - containing replacements for R 2.15.3, 3.0.3 and 3.1.2. You just extract the relevant one for your R version. The windows builds of R packages snpStats x.x.x.8 and snpMatrix 1.19.0.20 were done with link-time optimization. (uploaded last weekend). I'd be interested if anybody wants to compare the speed of the 1000 genome code vs 1.19.0.19 on windows. LTO on linux is 10+% faster. There is a new bug fix in GLM related stuff in snpStats x.x.x.8 . I'd be interested in anybody supplies an example to demonstrate snpStats 1.17.0 being buggy also. I haven't decided what to do with link-time optimization of the OS X build - Xcode/Clang is the default on OS X though gcc is more familiar (https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2014-11/msg00268.html) so I probably will do both and see which one is better at some point. The package uploads (12 in all, 2 packages x 3 R versions x 2 builds) are now divided by R versions - those in unversion'ed directories are still for R 2.x. -------------------------------------------- On Wed, 21/1/15, Hin-Tak Leung <ht...@users.sourceforge.net> wrote: R.framework-Versions-Resources-library-grDevices-libs-cairo_20150120.tgz in http://sourceforge.net/projects/outmodedbonsai/files/R/ are dropped in replacement to the cairo.so's in the official R binaries (2.15.3, 3.0.3, 3.1.2). updated to cairo-1.12.18 and freetype-2.5.4. The official R binaries' were built with early freetype 2.4.x and cairo 1.11(?) and had a number of issues with some windows and mac system fonts; also the one in the official binaries were built with a freetype that's built differently from apple's and and therefore can interfere with other GUI applications' use of dfonts on Mac OS X. (that unfortunately means the most common typefaces like Time and Helvetica!). While doing that, I found that the official R-3.1.*-mavericks.pkg are crippled, compared to R-3.1.*-snowleopard.pkg. They have tiff functionality missing. Here are the sizes of the official binaries': ... The next thing I am doing is building the replacement for the cairo.dll's in the offical R windows binaries. Just watch out in the next few days in the same directory. ---------- not R-devel related below this point ------ I have finished with snpMatrix 1.19.0.20 5 days ago. Some of you may notice the documentations are already out - 19 months about 400 commit since 1.19.0.19, it comes with a snpStats compatibility mode; when that mode is on, about 1/3 of its internals are swapped to their snpStats-equivalent versions. Initially synchronized to snpStats x.x.x.8 - and I already mentioned that it is because of another GLM related bug, found on top of x.x.x.7. Sigh. snpMatrix 1.19.0.20 and snpStats x.x.x.8 are now really just waiting for me to finish with the cairo stuff (for R 3.1.x). The impatient can just read the new vignettes. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
