:-). I don't like the idea of hiding source code - I am not an open-source fanatic, but a broken piece of software can be fixed by a 3rd party, otherwise you are at the mercy of the time/financial constraints of the author... That said, since the original poster said 'as a part of an application', it is probably possible to just uuencode/flatencode/ucs-16 some R-code, stuff it down as a long char array, and pass the decrypted version one line at a time to R_eval() in a C wrapper, just to get around the usual R ways of getting at the R-based source code. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
