Hello Kurt, you might consult the following two web-references: 1) http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ 2) http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~kwan022/pub/R/WinBook/WinBook.pdf chapter 5, Build R Package. The software you need to have installed is listed in chapter 4.1.

Hello, I know this might sound stupid, but here's my problem. I try to build packages, which gives absolutely no problem as long as I do this in Linux. I get my .tar.gz-package. However, for windows, one needs .zip-files (I guess), but for one reason or another, this seems not to work. I'm sorry about this question, but I'm not a windows-specialist (nor Linux-guru). I don't see how to make 'zip'-packages in linux and trying this in Windows ('Rcmd build <package>' at the DOS prompt), tells me it can't find perl script 'c:\Progra~1\R/bin/build' (or something like that). tnx, Kurt
