Re: [Rd] Installation problem from R 2.8.x

True, /tmp is noexec and this is generally a good practice for system security. Okay, I'll define TMPDIR=$HOME/tmp for the R package admin on our systems. I think it'd be good if R developers could consider to add something like: If $TMPDIR is not executable, then EITHER error message OR

[Rd] creating environments in package's C code

Dear developers, is it possible to create environments in C code of packages? Simply using SEXP env; PROTECT (env = allocSExp(ENVSXP)); and assigning the enclosing environment with SET_ENCLOS seems to be insufficient. Best wishes, Martin -- Dr. Martin Becker Statistics and Econometrics

[Rd] Rd.sty question: LaTeX expert needed

The Rd.sty LaTeX package is used when building the R manuals, and by the LaTeX pages produced from the man pages. I have tracked down some problems Gábor Csárdi was having recently (see Re: [R] preformatted and '#' in manual pages in R-help) to a LaTeX problem, and am trying to work out how

[Rd] X11 Problems

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting x11 to work with R. (This is on Debian testing.) I installed r-base and r-base-dev, and then r-cran-cairodevice. I also tried installing the Cairo package within R, which appears to work fine. This what I'm seeing: capabilities() jpeg png

Hello I could send a .Rdata file but it doesn't load throwing a similar error. I can go through the code (below) Now if instead of A0-A3 and B0-B3, i simply create a RAWSEXP and copy the the raw bytes (in kvhold) return this list of two-element lists containing raw bytes and then call lapply(h,
