[Rd] gfortran: Command not found

[Spencer Graves]

Hi, All: 

      How do I get information about the "R CMD check / build / install" 
process, especially regarding what software to install and how to 
configure it under Windows XP? 

      I ask, because "R CMD check" complained, "gfortran: Command not 
found".  I found 'gfortran-sjlj.exe' in 'C:\Program 
Files\R\Rtools\MinGW\bin', which is in the path. 

      This was on a package that I built successfully in January under R 
2.6.2.  Now with R 2.7.0, I can't get it to work. 

      Thanks for your help.
