I'd like to give a copy of an R package to someone using S-PLUS. It doesn't just run as-is, it'll need changes. Has anyone written any general guidelines on ways to port in that direction?
I thought the other Duncan had some form of compatibility package on the Omegahat WWW site?
The "SLanguage" package in omegahat is an R and S-Plus collection of functions addressing some of the incompatibilities. The functions there will help with some aspects, but it's not a tutorial and doesn't claim to be complete. I'd say that's a place for someone to get some additional ideas, and some possibly helpful software, once they understand the basics of what they need to do.
