Hello John,

Perhaps you can help me. I am an idiot. I visited the Rtools web page 
and learn to run the following lines in R: Still I am getting the same 
warning message.

 > writeLines('PATH="${RTOOLS40_HOME}\\usr\\bin;${PATH}"', con = 
"~/.Renviron")
 > Sys.which("make")
 ????????????????????????????? make
"C:\\rtools40\\usr\\bin\\make.exe"
