My fame package has a function that checks to see if a FAME SERVER process is
already running. On Linux, I can do this in one of two ways:
pid <- Sys.getpid()
user <- Sys.info()["user"]
cmd <- paste("pgrep -fU", user, "-P", pid, "'FAME SERVER'")
fameRunning <- as.logical(length(system(cm
Most systems do not have pgrep: it is not POSIX. From Linux:

pkill and pgrep were introduced in Sun's Solaris 7. This
implementation is fully
compatible.
The man pages of Darwin and many other systems are online, and linked from
developer.r-project.org. You could do

Hi,
Man page for 'convolve' says:
conj: logical; if 'TRUE', take the complex _conjugate_ before
back-transforming (default, and used for usual convolution).
The complex conjugate of 'x', of 'y', of both?
In fact it seems that it takes the complex conjugate of 'y' only which
is OK
Hi again,
There are many problems with current 'convolve' function.
The author of the man page seems to be aware that 'convolve' does _not_ the
usual thing:
Note that the usual definition of convolution of two sequences 'x'
and 'y' is given by 'convolve(x, rev(y), type = "o")'.
and indeed, i
Last but not least: convolve2 can be made 100 times or 1000 times faster
than convolve by choosing a power of 2 for the length of the fft-buffer
(a length of 2^n is the best case for the fft, the worst case being when
the length is a prime number):

> y <- 1:1
