[R] RGtk2 help: Show list of column names from dataset and categorize as factor or numeric

[Ronggui Huang]

I use gWidgetsRGtk2, which provides widgets such as notebook etc. You
can start with gWidgetsRGtk2, and if you want to tailor the GUI
according to your needs, you can modified them with RGtk2 package.
