Note that there are other changes in that version too: stripchart() is a generic function, and it handles formulas more like boxplot() does than in 2.6.x or earlier. > > (Is there some way to source it directly without downloading it and > then sourcing it? > source() does not appear to work directly with https:) In Windows if you start R with the --internet2 option (which uses IE APIs instead of regular networking) and Windows trusts the certificate authority, then https urls can be handled. But svn.r-project.org is self-signed, so it doesn't help in this case.
