curiosity about indenting and hyphens in R.app editor
Day, Roger S. · Jul 14, 2008 · r-sig-mac

I've tried indenting a block of text in the R.app editor using a standard convention - highlight, then press "tab". It doesn't work of course. Trying alt-Tab to see if un-indenting works, I found that alt...

mvbutils and trackObjs
Day, Roger S · May 31, 2010 · r-help

Hello Colleagues, I've recently become a fan of Mark Bravington's mvbutils package for organizing analysis projects in a tree. Using cd(), Save(), fixr(), mlazy() etcetera solves nicely some of the nuisances that have worried or annoyed me and...

.Last( ) taking keyboard input hangs on command-Q
Day, Roger S · May 31, 2010 · r-sig-mac

Dear Colleagues, The recent change to R.app disabling q() and requiring command-Q or the equivalent is well motivated. However, it introduces a new problem for a user (like me) who has a .Last() calling for user input, e...

up-arrow in console
Day, Roger S · Jul 19, 2011 · r-sig-mac

Hi, Hans, Got another "curiosity" for you! A changed behavior in the new interface: Type some command in the console, e.g. date(). Now up-arrow, and Enter. Repeat. Each time, an extra newline is added before pressing Enter. The...

editor autocomplete, comments, and quotes
Day, Roger S · Jun 23, 2011 · r-sig-mac

Hi Gang, I've discovered a curiosity with autocomplete in the editor. If you insert a comment with an unmatched single quote, for example #### I'm so happy that last line of code worked! then autocomplete will no longer work...

Yes, you're right, that's the cause. Thanks! On Jul 19, 2011, at 12:43 PM, Simon Urbanek wrote: > Check "cleanup history entries" in the Preferences if you don't like this. It is in fact the default AFAIR...

.Last( ) taking keyboard input hangs on command-Q
Day, Roger S · Jun 6, 2010 · r-sig-mac

Thanks, Simon, for your reply. This is reproducible with 2.11.1, both 32 and 64 bit. With the following .Last, command-Q hangs, there's no exit except an external kill, and .RData will not be saved. Not a...

R editor for Mac
Day, Roger S · Jan 27, 2011 · r-sig-mac

I agree, I (generally) adore using the R.app. (I also use Keyboard Maestro to add a couple of extra conveniences, like mimicking the behavior of control-R from windows (submitting, then advancing to the next line), or indenting/de...

savehistory in OSX version
Day, Roger S. · Mar 12, 2008 · r-sig-mac

Thanks, Rob. In the interests of wasting many hours to save a few seconds of hateful clicking around, I have written an applescript solution for saving the history. It works (most of the time). Why I want it: (a) automate...

cmd-return in editordoes not go to next line
Day, Roger S. · Apr 10, 2008 · r-sig-mac

Rune, I recently stumbled upon "Keyboard Maestro", a program for defining keyboard macros. (I had to deal quickly with a broken key.) This solves the problem you mention, -- and many other peeves with the Mac interface. You can easily define...

Help, R crashes on startup
Day, Roger S · Jun 22, 2010 · r-sig-mac

Another possible culprit is ~/.Rprofile. Once this was the source of my problem. A tactic to help isolate the problem is to run R --vanilla from the terminal. Then you can paste in lines from .Rprofile one at a time...

problem with showMethods()
Day, Roger S · Sep 21, 2013 · r-help

This message could be useful for people fairly new to S4 classes. Therefore r-help and not r-devel. One use for showMethods(), important to me, is to find all methods that use a particular class in their signatures. This...

savehistory in OSX version
Day, Roger S. · Jan 14, 2008 · r-help

Thanks, Rob, I'm still unsure on the key question. Is there any way in R.app to save the commands run in the Console into a *.history or .Rhistory file, by running a command on the Console, whether savehistory...

Hi Patrick, Greetings from !(sunny) Pittsburgh. What's the scoop on RCurl on windows (XP)? I've tried to install RCurl_0.92-0.zip and RCurl_0.9-3.zip, with both R 2.7.2 and R 2...
