I ve installed wordnet 2.1 and R 2.11.0 on windows 7. Whenver i try to load wordnet in R, i get an error initDict() FALSE cannot find wordnet 'dict' directory, Please set the WNHOME variable to its parent. I have tried setting WNHOME to "C:\Program Files (x86)\WordNet\2.1\dict","C:\\Program Files (x86)\\WordNet\\2.1\\dict","C:\\\\Program Files (x86)\\\\WordNet\\\\2.1\\\\dict". None of them helps. Please help me out. Thanks in advance.
1. WNHOME is supposed to be the environment variable set in your opearting system (not an R variable). 2. You should set it to the parent of "dict" rather than "dict". If you want to do that from R, use Sys.setenv(WNHOME = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\WordNet\\2.1") Best, Uwe Ligges
