Hi all!
I'va tried to install the routine FEAR in R, to compute DEA estimates for
an academic work.
I've downloaded and installed R (the last version 2.14.1) from
http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/R/CRAN, and then I've downloaded FEAR, I've saved
it on the desktop, and following the instruction I've installed it on R
(from "Install package(S) from local zip files..).
After this, my R console window within R GUI appears as follow:
utils:::menuInstallLocal()
package ‘FEAR’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
library(FEAR)
Errore: package ‘FEAR’ is not installed for 'arch=i386'

Sounds like this package was not built for R for Windows or for an
ancient version of it. Since I FEAR we do not have access to your FEAR,
we can only guess....

Couldn't resist, could you ?
Not at all.
googling "FEAR DEA R" gives this:
http://www.clemson.edu/economics/faculty/wilson/Software/FEAR/fear.html
I found that FEAR, but how could I be sure this was the one cited by the
OP? Anyway, I explained the nonsense of nonexisting sources in another
message already,

You have to accept a click-through academic-use-only, no-redistribution,
no-reverse-engineering, no-developing-copies license: "[you may not] use
the software to develop copycat or functionally equivalent technology or
derivative technologies based on the methods employed in the software" ...
I would contact the package maintainer about this problem, since by imposing
these kinds of licensing restrictions he has probably moved outside
the area of interest of most active R developers/helpers ...
I've tried more times, with different versions of R (2.11 and 2.12) but the
error is always the same!
What's wrong? Where is my mistake??=
