[Rd] Injecting source reference from external editors (emacs).

2011-11-16 Thread Vitalie Spinu
Hi everyone, I would like to inject source reference into R objects from external editor. In my case it's emacs with ESS and ess-tracebug (http://code.google.com/p/ess-tracebug/). Currently the user has to source the file before the src references become available. I would like to spare her,

[Rd] strange behavior from cex=*

2011-11-16 Thread Ben Bolker
Someone inquired on StackOverflow about apparently non-deterministic graphics behaviour in R. I noticed that they were using cex=* and discovered some potentially weird behavior. On repeated runs of the same code I can get different PNGs. If I set the number of runs high enough, I seem to
