These infos I prepared on July 05 for some Bioc users worked at that time, of course you should take the latest versions of the packages. But the idea is that one package should be built from source and the other one just moved in the appropriate folder of your system. stefano
download BWidget from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=12883 once you get the archive BWidget-1.7.0.tar.gz move it to /usr/local/ lib and install it with sudo mv /some_download_path/BWidget-1.7.0.tar.gz /usr/local/lib cd /usr/loca/lib sudo tar zxf BWidget-1.7.0.tar.gz and you are done. download Tktable from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=11464 and get Tktable2.9.tar.gz now you need Apple Dev tools installed to continue: tar zxf Tktable2.9.tar.gz cd Tktable2.9 ./configure make sudo make install now it works in R If you don't have dev tools installed I can send you a copy of Tktable built (80k).
