Hi Uwe,
Thank you for your guidance. I have installed R2WinBUGS and WinBUGS14 under
wine. Using ?bugs for help, it tells me:
useWINE: logical; attempt to use the Wine emulator to run 'WinBUGS',
defaults to 'FALSE' on Windows, and 'TRUE' otherwise. Not available in
S-PLUS.
WINE: character, path to 'wine' binary file, it is tried hard (by a guess
and the utilities 'which' and 'locate') to get the information
automatically if not given.
newWINE: Use new versions of Wine that have 'winepath' utility
WINEPATH: character, path to 'winepath' binary file, it is tried hard (by a
guess and the utilities 'which' and 'locate') to get the information
automatically if not given.
..and the following code is a simple Bayesian version of a t-test...
############################ Directory Paths ############################

MyData <- as.data.frame(cbind(y, x))
y.n <- NROW(MyData$y)

bugs.directory = MyBUGSPath, working.directory=MyModelPath,

The output says:
ERROR:
cannot open the connection
I'm wondering if I've misinterpreted how to set my paths with wine, because
I can go to the following path, double-click on WinBUGS14.exe, and open it
just fine: /home/me/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/WinBUGS14/
I can also go to Applications > Wine > Browse C:\ Drive and navigate to
WinBUGS.
Please help if I've done something wrong. Thanks.
