[R-gui] New SciViews version 0.9.16

[Philippe Grosjean]

The new SciViews version 0.9.16 (http://www.sciviews.org/SciViews-K) is 
now compatible with R 2.11.0 and comes with a couple of new features and 
connects more smoothly to R (in console/terminal, RGui under Windows, 
R.app or R64.app on the Mac).

SciViews provides a series of packages for R and a Komodo Edit (a very 
capable code editor) plugin. With this plugin, you got an environment 
with similar features as you got with Eclipse + StatET, RKward, R 
Commander or JGR + Deducer.

On the contrary to R Commander or Deducer, you cannot perform tasks 
through dialog boxes, but you got so-called *snippets with dialog 
boxes*, which are dialog boxes allowing to parameterize snippets of R 
code. This approach is deliberate to focus on building an *R script*, as 
the best way to both trace your analysis and to build easily reusable 
code (this approach combines, thus, the best of the two worlds: GUI and 
command line). Look at 
http://www.sciviews.org/SciViews-K/VisualGuide3Snippets.pdf for a more 
extensive explanation.

SciViews also provides all the niceties for editing R code (syntax 
highlighting, bracket matching, call tips, completion lists, code 
folding, etc.). It has a complete R objects explorer, a graphical test 
units system, and much, much more...

SciViews works on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows (tested with Komodo Edit 
5.2, R 2.11 and Windows XP SP3, Windows 7, Ubuntu 9.10 and Mac OS X 10.6).
