[R-gui] Web based GUI

[Wayne.W.Jones at shell.com]

Hi Adrian, 


Are you aware of RWeb: http://bayes.math.montana.edu/Rweb/Rweb.general.html

Very similar to your project. Although it doesn’t seem to be working at the moment. 

Wayne

Hi Adrián

Looks impressive. Something like this might be useful for potential
new users, so they could try some things without committing themselves
to installing anything. If that is your audience I would add a few
hints to the page about examples to try.

Are you planning to allow data files to be uploaded? Currently, users'
data can be read in from URLs.

I think it would be good to use the HTML help system, if possible,
rather than plain text.

Obviously a system like this could quickly be overwhelmed if it it
became at all popular... I assume you are running R processes inside
'nice' or somesuch.

All the best, and good luck,
-Felix
