Hi all, Would it be possible to have the new 'parallel' library export a dummy function, something akin to
if(Windows) mclapply <- lapply to paper over the lack of fork() support on said platform? This may not be the world's greatest idea, but it would make it easier for me to maintain my package and still offer most users good parallel support. Plus, I can't really see where it would cause problems, but then I don't develop R, myself. Thanks for any thoughts on the matter. -- If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.
