Thanks for your reply.
here is my path:
I:<DIR>\Rtools\bin;
i:<DIR>\Rtools\perl\bin;
I:<DIR>\Rtools\MinGW\bin;
I:<DIR>\R-2.8.1\bin;
I downloaded my R source from the cran.
the command I executed from within R-2.8.1\src\gnuwin32 is:
'make all recommended'
I'd love to just install the binary, but I'm trying to compile rpy2 which
complains about R not being compiled as a library.
thanks for whatever help you can provide.
