Sounds like you did not download and install Prof. Ripley's Tools
package or if you did, the PATH environment variable is not set
properly. 

If you did not download the Tools package, go here:

http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/

and download the Unix tools ZIP file in the Essentials section and read
the remainder of the page, which provides further guidance.

If you did download and extract that package, be sure to edit the PATH
to reflect the location of those files.

BTW, don't forget to update to R 1.7.1, which is now released and
available on CRAN.

HTH,

1) Please use some meaningful Subject.

2) Have you read Prof Ripley's http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ 
(hint: you may want to download the tools.zip file).

"make" is a utility that's used in the build process.  You can get
copies of all the utilities you need from Brian Ripley's web page as
described in $RHOME/readme.packages.

You didn't mention that you had installed a Fortran compiler.  If you
haven't installed the recommended compiler (MinGW), you might find
that some more work will be needed to get the scripts to work.

Have you considered "get" or "assign"?  If these do not seem
appropriate, you may wish to resubmit your question being more specific,
providing a very brief example of what you want to do.

Thanx to all who responded to my plea for help.  You were right, I did not
have the Path environment set properly for the tools package.  I get  a
little further now, but still get an error message.

My Cmd Window looks like this:
    Rcmd SHLIB combo.f
    ar cr combo.a *.o
    ranlib combo.a
    gcc --shared -s -o combo.dll combo.def
omo.a  -LC:/PROGRA~1/R/rw1070/src/gnuwin32  -lg2c -lR
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized
    Warning: .drectve '%.*s' unrecognized

I've read through the readme.packages text and have applied everything that
I think applies to my situation, except for that R is installed in "Program
Files".  I will move it to a dir with ni spaces next.

Any other suggestions?

Mark
