Transporting s-plus routines to R
lhomer wrote: I have used S-Plus for Windows for some time and have a large collection of personal programs. I have recently installed R-1.1.1 under Linux. I can read the .ssc files from S-Plus into emacs and save to R, but this is apt to be tedious. Any shortcuts to recommend?
Yes. If all functions used within the *.ssc files are well known by R, simply rename the files to *.r.
Will linux R read the _Data files from Windows S-Plus?
There is a function in the package Rstreams (available at CRAN), which reads some binary S-Plus files.
Would Windows R serve as a useful intermediate transfer?
The above mentioned methods work also on Linux.
