[Rd] Error in documentation for ?legend

2017-03-24 Thread POLITZER-AHLES, Stephen [CBS]
To whom it may concern: The help page for ?legend refers to a `title.cex` parameter, which suggests that the function has such a parameter. As far as I can tell, though, it doesn't; here's an example: > plot(1,1) > legend("topright",pch=1, legend="something", title="my legend", title.cex=2)

Have the lawyers look at Microsoft R, it seems the license is not very catching ultimately. Perhaps you could use a similar ruse, or even align to that project instead. Cheers, Mike On Sat, Mar 25, 2017, 00:54 Mario Emmenlauer wrote: > > Dear All, > > I've been following

Thanks for the quick reply. Hmm. Well I’m not sure how to go about this. Should I change the name of the file? I assumed that it could init.c, but maybe that has changed. > On Mar 24, 2017, at 11:21 AM, Dirk Eddelbuettel wrote: > > > On 24 March 2017 at 08:52, Jeremy

The key difference being that while not under the GPL, highcharter is still open source. There isn't a single compiled library in the entire package. WinBUGS otoh is closed source (although there is an open source version of it, OpenBUGS). As far as I understood, CRAN doesn't accept packages

My humble 2 nonlegal cents: There are multiple packages that make the link between R and proprietary software. One example is R2WinBUGS which connects to WinBUGS, but there are a lot more of these. All of these use essentially the same idea: - create the package under a standard GPL license -
