[R] Does SJava work on Windows? It does (ish) on Linux

Hi Peter,

It's a typo in the omega web page. The correct mail address is
omega-help at omegahat.org (not omega-help at www.omegahat.org)

I had similar problems, see my summary:
http://www.omegahat.org/pipermail/omega-help/2002-October/000232.html

>Do I have to compile R ( I assume the 1.6 R.dll is OK for SJava 0.65?).

I have done my tests with R1.5.1. There is a problem with SJava and R,
that has to be fixed in R, see

>Any help on getting SJava working on Windows is appreciated.

If you want to give it a try, I can send you the modified SJava
sources/DLL.
