I've got two new and one old bug I thought I'd mention. First, here
are the versions:
R.version.string = "Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01)"
R GUI = Version 1.16 (3198)
OS = 10.4.7
Computer = 2x3GHz Mac Pro
The old bug is in the GUI and has to do with file name tab completion.
If I type:
data <- read.delim("/Users/gene/Bioinformatics/snp project/snp.2
Then hit tab to complete the file name and select the first file in
the list, "snp.200060403.rdat" and hit tab or right arrow, I end up
with:
data <- read.delim("/Users/gene/Bioinformatics/snp project/snp.snp.
20060403.rdat
You can see that the first part of the filename "snp." is
duplicated. If I hit tab with only "...snp." already entered rather
than "...snp.2" entered, the tab completion works properly.
I have just switched to the Mac Pro and the Universal version of R
and have found two new bugs. One is with history completion using
the up arrow. If I run a command that includes a hash sign, then hit
the up arrow, the line is truncated at the hash:
> zz <- "hello#world"
[up arrow]
> zz <- "hello
The second bug is with plotting. The outline=FALSE option appears to
be ignored for the boxplot.
This is the specific code I'm using:
boxplot(the.values ~ the.snps.factor[,i], add=TRUE, boxwex=.25,
outline=FALSE, border="#757575bf")
When I ran this on my PowerMac, this would allow the points from the
previously drawn stripchart to remain visible, but now the outline=F
option is ignored and the boxplot obscures the existing points on the
graph.
Finally, a feature request: A search field for the history. It can
be hard to find things in the history drawer, especially since multi-
line entries only show their first line in the drawer, so I am forced
to save the history and open it in a text editor, or search through
the main console. And the main point of the history drawer is to not
have to look through the console window.
Thanks
Gene
