Dear R-GUI list members, I'm working towards the 1.0-0 release of the Rcmdr package in September. The current version, which I've just uploaded to CRAN, is 0.9-10. This version is also available on my web site, at <http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/index.html>. I've made substantial changes to the package since the useR! Conference in May. For example, the size of the code has been reduced by about 40 percent -- mostly by using macro-like functions to generate common elements of dialogs, such as sets of radio buttons, check boxes, and OK/Cancel/Help buttons (and these functions might be useful to others who are using the tcltk package); by default R output is now routed to an output window within the Commander; and several new capabilities have been added to the package. All this is detailed in the CHANGES file. The principal reason that I'm writing to the list is that it would be helpful if people could try out the new version on various platforms and let me know whether there are any problems. I'm leaving town for a couple of weeks next Monday, but should have time to deal with issues that arise when I return. Thanks, John -------------------------------- John Fox Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario Canada L8S 4M4 905-525-9140x23604 http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox
