Greg,
if he had access (like I do) he'd said it works for him. At least it
does for me (under Windows Server 2008 and XP) and it also passes the
CRAN checks under Windows, see e.g.
http://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-windows-ix86+x86_64/tkrplot-00check.html
You may want to elaborate why you think it does not work and provide us
with what you typed in R and what the actual error message is.

I traced the problem down to the line in the .First.lib function:
.Tcl(paste("load", file, "Rplot"))
With file being "C:/Program
Files/R/R-2.13.0/library/tkrplot/libs/i386/tkrplot.dll" on my system. I did check
that the file exists and it can even be loaded using dyn.load, but when running the .Tcl
command by hand it produces the following error:
Error in structure(.External("dotTcl", ..., PACKAGE = "tcltk"), class =
"tclObj") :
[tcl] could not find interpreter "Rplot".
It works in previous versions of R, so I am guessing that this is due to some
change in R, or the tcl with R 2.13.0, or how tkrplot was compiled under the
new R, or possibly something else.
Does anyone else have any insights?
