I have windows version of R v1.6.2 I have downloaded the qtoolbox.zip from http://www.cmis.csiro.au/S-PLUS/qtoolbox/ My R command line is
install.packages("C:/Program Files/R/qtoolbox.zip", .libPaths()[1], CRAN =
NULL) and I get the following error message: updating HTML package descriptions Warning message: error -1 in extracting from zip file
Is there another way to install this S-Plus based Package?
I presume it is a S-PLUS library section for S-PLUS 4.x. You wouldn't try to install, say, a MATLAB toolbox, so why do you think an S-PLUS one would work? It is sometimes possible to port the sources of an S-PLUS library section to sources for an R package, with considerable work.
Is there another control chart library for R that I should be trying instead?
You seem to have `package' and `library' reversed in meaning.
