Dear All,
In a package, I am using ".C" to call some C functions. In one case,
the number of elements of the return vectors are not known in R before
the C call. (Two of the vectors are integers, the third is vector of
character strings).
Passing from R a vector of the maximum possible size would

Dear all,
Why not leave ? more-or-less as it is (at least for ?foo) and add arguments
to help() for other kinds of searches? Perhaps the kind of search that
help() does by default could be set as an option.

For what it's worth, I use ?foo mostly to look up usage of functions
that I know I want to use, and find it perfect for that (one benefit
over help() is that completion works for ?). The only thing I miss is
the ability to do the equivalent of help("foo", package = "bar");
?bar::foo gives the help

That would help if anyone actually read the startup banner. The next

I'd be interested to know how many R users are aware of the dyadic
form - I suspect it's very very few.

Heh, that's rather nice, actually. In words, that could read
?foo: tell me about foo!

I've just installed R 2.7.0 in my computer whose operating system is Windows
Vista. When I first started the R program I encountered an error message about
"R for Windows GUI frond-end". I've never seen error messag
I have a vector of dimension 67, but CircStat circ.summary and circ.disp
seems to conclude that the dimension is 1.
I am new to R so maybe I'm just missing something.
