[Rd] user supplied random number generators

?Random.user says (in svn trunk) Optionally, functions \code{user_unif_nseed} and \code{user_unif_seedloc} can be supplied which are called with no arguments and should return pointers to the number of seeds and to an integer array of seeds. Calls to \code{GetRNGstate} and \code{PutRNGst

[Rd] Oops...a better (working, this time) patch for setRepositories

My previous suggested patch worked fine for the text-menu case, but broke the graphics case; the following one, that moves the definition of nc outside of the if...else clauses, works for both: Index: packages.R === --- packages.

[Rd] Problem in setRepositories() logic

Hi, all-- I was playing around with the Packages menu in the Windows RGui, and noticed that when I chose Select repositories and clicked Cancel, instead of being returned to the R prompt I was faced with a text version of the menu. I think the text menu should only appear if graphics=FALSE

[Rd] BUG/FIX: View gives internal error with long argument (multiline deparse)
