Re: [Rd] error when running configure (PR#7283)

2004-10-12 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
Why have you submitted this as a bug in R? Have you read the R FAQ on BUGS? Giving a clear error message about your system is not a bug. R has been configured *many* times on systems with gcc 3.4.2 and glibc 2.3.x (mainly i686 systems, which you did not mention). Something is unusual, possib

In the help file for "fix" in the Details section: I suggest that "when" be replaced by "in which case" so that the sentence reads: The name supplied as 'x' need not exist as an R object, in which case a function with no arguments and an empty body is supplied for editing. I'm looking at: platform

1) See the R FAQ. R-bugs is not for questions. PLEASE don't abuse our system like this. 2) R-bugs is not for reports on Bioconductor. 3) The error message you got is mentioned in the top section of the NEWS file for R 2.0.0, namely o Packages must have been re-installed for this versio

Re: [Rd] promptData still creates 'data(...)' in R 2.0.0

2004-10-12 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
This is deliberate. Datasets can only be used directly for packages to be installed with `LazyData: Yes', and that is not known when prompt() is called. Allowing direct use of datasets is a convenience that the avantgarde packages have adopted, but there can be good reasons not to go in the dir

[Rd] promptData still creates 'data(...)' in R 2.0.0

2004-10-12 Thread kwright
Not necessarily a bug report, but might be nice to change. I'm using R 2.0.0 on Windows 2000. The promptData function creates a .Rd file in which the 'usage' section is: \usage{data()} I've looked at several of the help files for various data sets. It looks like the use of 'data' is being red

I've got a lot further. 1) The problem is due to changing the console font, which the preference dialog always did (even if it changed it to a new copy of the same font). 2) It is associated with MDI toolbars, and never happens if they are not selected. I found one inconsistency: you (I think)

I can reproduce this in MDI. Another clue is that as the pager for ?merge is opened, the font in the console changes. The console is still working: commands you type in it are accepted. So the issue appears to be that the font in use has been changed incorrectly (and it seems that the C code thi
