[Rd] latest Rtools missing "inconsolita.sty"

[Spencer Graves]

Hi, Duncan & Uwe:


       Thanks for your suggestions.  I uninstalled and reinstalled 
MiKTeX, and the problem went away.


       MiKTeX seems to malfunction when installed anyplace but the 
default location.  Because of security problems I had had with Vista, 
I've been installing things like R and MiKTeX under my user account, not 
the default "C:/Program Files (x86)".  When I reinstalled it, I put it 
in the default location and eliminated this problem.


       Best Wishes,
       Spencer
