[Rd] Question about how to compile .zip for Windows
Dear all, Thanks for Baptiste's help. He offered me the website http://win-builder.r-project.org/ This is very good. However, I face another problem recently that I need to program a package, which require 'multiple-precision floating-point computations'. I found that MPFR is very good tools. It can be installed on the linux system, if you want to use it just include some head files. So my problem is my computer can only compile the linux version package not the windows .zip version. And also If I want to use the website above, it doesn't install the MPFR. I want to try to compile it directly on my computer. I stuck here.

Re: [Rd] Question about multiple-precision floating-point computations
See, for example, package Rmpfr. Uwe Ligges On 29.10.2011 05:33, Yi Zhao wrote: Dear all, I am trying to programming a R package in C++, which need calculate the number 25 digits after the dot.

[Rd] minor typos
R-devel doc/NEWS.Rd (SVN 57472) contains:
\item There are two new options for typesetting PDF manuals from
Rd files. These are \samp{beramono} and \samp{inconsolata}, and
used the named font for mononspaced output. They are intended to
be used in combination with \samp{times}, and
\samp{times,inconsolata,hyper} is now the default for the
reference manual and package manuals. If you do not have that
font installed, you can set \env{R_RD4PF} to one of the other
options: see the \sQuote{R Installation and Administration Manual}.
Should the second line there be "use the named font for monospaced
output ..." ?
Also,
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/
contains (second paragraph): "Altough we take precautions when
assembling binaries, please use the normal precautions with downloaded
executables. " -- should be "Although" ...

Yes, fixed (in both senses).

I'll leave that one for the CRAN masters

You can make use of the same setting on winbuilder. In other words, we do have a pre-compiled mpfr for Windows, and it *is* installed on winbuilder.
