[R] Maxent package - Restriction on number of unique class labels

[John Kane]

I have never even heard of the package but it might be just that that is the default maximum number of labels programmed in.

Have a look at the manual and/or the actual function.  If you don't get an answer in a day or so, email the author or maintainer.
