[R] rsync

2003-03-21 Thread kjetil brinchmann halvorsen
Hola!

I am now downloading r-devel to compile it on windows XP. The CRAN
source code page says you will prefere to use rsync. I am googling 
around, and cannot find anything about rsync on windows. 

Anybody has any experience with rsync on windows?

Hi,

Perhaps have a look at 
http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/rsync_pc1.html Installing 
rsync on a Windows machine?

FYI, I did a google search on Using rsync on Windows and found it.

You can use rsync on Windows via the Cygwin toolset (see
www.cygwin.com).  

I've also seen an rsync for windows written in Python, but haven't
tried it.

If you do that and also want to use Brian Ripley's toolkit for compiling,
you might get into trouble because of incompatible versions of
cygwin1.dll
I managed to get a working solution by using rsync from

http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/rsync_pc1.html

and putting rsync.exe into the directory with brian's binaries (sed, 
grep, diff ...)
this rsync vversion can work with brian's version of cygwin1.dll.
