Hi,
I am trying to compile R from source on Windows.
I am following the instructions here
3.1 Building from source
3 Installing R under Windows
file:///F:/ProgramFiles/R/R-2.15.3/doc/manual/R-admin.html
It only says,?
"
The Tcl/Tk support files are contained in Rtools30.exe and?
available as .zips from http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools.?
Please make sure you install the right version: there is a 32-bit?
version and a 64-bit version.
"
Anyways,
I collected the support files from here.
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/R_Tcl_8-5-8.zip
The instructions do not say "where to put my Tcl folder."
So I just guessed, based on ( include, doc, and bin are parallel directories )
in F:\ProgramFiles\R\R-2.15.3\Tcl
I guessed ( and guessed wrong ) ...
M:\YDrive\All_Economics\eclipse_workspace\R-2.15.3\src\Tcl
When Try to compile with?
M:\YDrive\All_Economics\eclipse_workspace\R-2.15.3\src\gnuwin32>make all recommended
I eventually get ...
? "tcltk.h:23:17: fatal error: tcl.h: No such file or directory"
in the message
building package 'tcltk'

Please, help.
