You might want to take a peak at the 'reposTools' package distributed by the Bioconductor project (www.bioconductor.org). Specifically, take a look at the three vignettes about reposTools at: http://www.bioconductor.org/viglistingindex.html One of the vignettes details how to construct a small repository of packages. There are HTML generation tools provided by the package if you wish to distribute your packages via the web. Also, why the standard install.packages()/etc don't work with a reposTools repository it does include its own set of client side functions XXX.packages2(), which are detailed in the vignette on accessing repositories. The package itself can be downloaded from the site, either in it's released version: http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/release1.1/package/html/index.html or developmental version: http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/html/index.html HTH -Jeff ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
