[R] Creating GUIs for R

[Bos, Roger]

I haven't heard Rpad mentioned yet, so I will mention it.  Rpad allows you to run R code inside a browser window.  You can many any kind of GUI you want using html forms and then call the R function from the html page.  The Apache/Rpad install works on any platform and anyone who uses it just need a browser.  I use it at my work to make my R function available to everyone else (none of whom know R).  Very happy with it.

Good luck,

Roger

If we must away from Excel, don't you think that Gnumeric/R could be a nice option?

Cheers,
