Thank you Dirk.

When you say test, I think you mean the examples in the documentation.
Which I likely do have wrong, because I'm not sure how to make a data file
available to the example..... but that may be a different issue.

I don't know what RANDR is.  I am opening several alternate output files:
 pdf, rtf txt.  Would that impact it?  Here is the example call to my
package, if that helps:

 \examples{
                  #---------------------   Vignette3      visualization

                  filePath<-"~/file/path/Installing CAT/Vignette3"
 # use for mac
                  #filePath<-"c:\\file\\path\\Installing CAT\\Vignette3"
  # use for PC
                  fileName<-file.path(filePath,'activity stress c57--stress
copy2-part.txt')
                  file2Name<-file.path(filePath,'good-6d-2m-part.txt')

                  CatCall(TimeCol=c(1,2), timeFormat=“\%d/\%m/\%y
\%H:\%M:\%S”,lum=NA, valCols=5, sumCols=c(), Avg=FALSE, export=TRUE,
sizePts=2, binPts=1, Span = 0, Increment=0, k=5, yLab=NA, modulo=1440,
Rverbose=0, RmaxGap=3000, Skip=0, header=TRUE, Smoothing=T,
Actogram=T,AutoCorr=T,CrossCorr=T,Console=F,Graphics="pdf", Darkness1=0,
LagPcnt=1, tz="GMT",
fileName=fileName,file2=list(Name=file2Name,TimeCol=c(1,2),
timeFormat="\%d/\%m/\%y \%H:\%M:\%S", lum=NA, valCols=5,
sumCols=c(),sizePts=2, binPts=1,Darkness=0))
                  }

Can I tell you anything that would be more helpful?
