Thanks! I will not give my e-mail address (hence the real name and
affiliation), until the R-newsgroup moderators stop saving e-mail addresses to
the archive, for spiders to pick up easily.

Yes, I did not know how to get them, and I am sorry for not knowing, but part
of being a professor is to tell people how to go about learning.

Many thanks for all your help! I have downloaded the libRmath RPM but (as you
point out), it is not necessary. So, thank you again!!

Best wishes.
