Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Create custom menus in R

2012-02-29 Thread Marcio Pupin Mello

Hi guys,
	does anyone know whether there is a similar function for Mac? I mean... 
is there an winMenuAdd funtion for R users on Mac?

Thanks in advance,

Marcio

Dear list members,

Does anyone know how to add items to the menu bar in R ?
Certain packages have their own custom menus, which allow access to different 
functions, but I haven't been able to figure out what the trick was with these.
I have been looking at GUI interface packages such as fgui and the like but in 
vain.

Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated !


It depends on the front-end.  In Windows Rgui, look at ?winMenuAdd.

As far as I know no. But to implement such a feature is quite easy. The only 
thing I'm concerning about is the naming issue.

For Windows OS there're commands like 'winMenuAdd' etc. i.e. prefixed by 'win'. 
One could implement this for Mac by using names like 'macMenuAdd' etc. but I 
think it'd better due to platform independent R scripts to have commands like 
'menuAdd' which then dispatches on basis of the running OS and R version the 
command to 'win...' or 'mac...' or simply ignore it if OS doesn't support such 
stuff.

The other way would be to adopt the names like 'winMenuAdd' and write a wrapper 
for R.app for such commands.

Any opinions?

Best,
