I have encountered an issue with TeXmacs and R 2.0.0, and I've found a somewhat unsatisfying workaround. My apologies if this is old news to the R-Devel list.
TeXmacs has the ability to start up an R session and copy the session input and output into a working document. The way it does this involves starting R and executing > library(TeXmacs,lib.loc="/usr/share/TeXmacs/plugins/r/r/") in the R session. The library was built with R 1.7.1, and hence will not work with R 2.0.0 or later. The workaround is (as "root"): 1. Edit /usr/share/TeXmacs/plugins/r/r/TeXmacs/DESCRIPTION and remove the line at the bottom that starts with "Built:" 2. Type R CMD build --force TeXmacs 3. Type R CMD INSTALL -l `pwd` TeXmacs_0.1.tar.gz My question is this: do I actually need to do the INSTALL, or is the build, followed by deleting the built package, enough? I've passed what I know so far on to the TeXmacs team; eventually they will incorporate some cleaner fix into their code, but I have no idea exactly how that will work, since they need to be able to work with older versions of R as well. ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
