Request for help with getting R to work on a DEC Alpha

2 messages · david schanzer, Peter Baker

#
I am currently attempting to install R on our DEC Alpha computer, and am
having a little trouble.

I have f2c installed in lieu of a Fortran compiler, and have installed
libf2c in a subdirectory below where f2c lives, although as you can see
below, libf2c is not being found during configuration. I'm not sure what I
would need to do to rectify this.

However, my main problem is with the 'make': I get the message "Don't know
how to make %.f", as you'll see below. I'm afraid that my Unix skills fail
me here.

Looking forward to receiving any help you can give. Please reply to:

Hi Everyone

Hope this is the right forum. I am sure it's obvious but .....

How do I get some sort of pattern on a boxplot? I have three groups
that are easy to give different colours but of course this isn't much
good for printing in black and white. Anyone written a clustered
boxplot (ala SPSS) which is the effect i'm after? 

Of course a pattern is what I'm really after as the clustered effect
is pretty easy to get

Thanks
Peter Baker
