Hi,
What do I need to install the latest package of SciViews? I already have R
v.2.2.1 installed on my WinXP machine.
On http://www.sciviews.org/SciViews-R/index.html I read that required components
are:
- SciViews-R version 0.8-9 (exe: 12,334 kb)
- SciViews R bundle version 0.8-9 (zip: 442 kb)
- R2HTML R package (>= 1.54) (zip: 527 kb)
- Manual
Then, on http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/SciViews.html I find
a newer version of SciViews-R: 0.9-4 (zip: 550kb). Also, I have found a version
1.56 of the R2HTML package (zip: 524 kb)on the web.
Looking at the contents of the zip files and their sizes, I would say that the
0.9-4 zip from CRAN is a newer version of the bundle version 0.8-9 on
sciviews.org.
This leaves me with the question what I need for a new install:
- do I need to get a newer version of the 12 Mb installer to use together with
the 0.9-4 bundle and 1.56 R2HTML package? If so, where can I get it?
- can I use the old installer with the newer bundle and package?, or
- should I stick to the 0.8-9 installer and bundle, together with the 1.54
package, in order to avoid clashes?
Thanks,
Wim van der Graaf
