Hi,
I make a little adapt to this script and try to use.
But, when a file dont exist, the installation is aborted.
trying URL `http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/assist_0.1.2.tar.gz'
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method) :
cannot open URL
`http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/assist_0.1.2.tar.gz'
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open: HTTP status was `404 Not Found'
Is possible to force R to continue the installation.
Thanks
Ronaldo
