Trying to follow the instructions on the page
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/12/17153.html (to make a
figure with an inset), I typed
> install.packages("gridBase", repos="http://cran.r-project.org";)
and was rejected.
no package 'gridBase' at the repositories in: download.packages(pkgs,
destdir = tmpd, available = available,
I went to the FAQ at
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Add_002don-packages-from-CRAN,
and was informed that gridBase was an add-on package available from
CRAN.
I also tried installing other packages using exactly the same command.
> install.packages("TeachingDemos", repos="http://cran.r-project.org";)
These packages were apparently found:
trying URL
'http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/TeachingDemos_1.2.tar.gz'
Content type 'application/x-tar' length 66472 bytes
opened URL
(and so on)
I would appreciate any insight that anyone might have.
