Personally I've always seen the '?fun' answers as appropriate and
straight to the point. There's no need to type a nice sounding phrase

Dear R developers
Would you consider adding a 'data.frame' method for the base::rep
function? The need to replicate a df row-wise can easily arise while
programming, and rep() is unable to handle such a case. See below.

The trouble with the current duplicated() function in is that it can
report duplicates while searching fromFirst _or_ fromLast, but not
both ways. Often users will want to identify and extract all the
copies of the item that has duplicates, not only the duplicates
themselves.

Dear R developers,
Currently many (all?) test functions in R describe the alternative
hypothesis, but not the the null hypothesis being tested. For example,

Dear R devels
Yesterday I was slightly surprised to notice that R incorrectly
detected some of the locale settings. I am not sure whether this is
important, but I preferred to drop a message. In the R output below,
some entries that should have been "en_GB.UTF-8" are presented as "C".

I get some strange crashes when 'cairoDevice' and 'tcltk' are both

When executing the following in that order

I've tried this a couple of days ago on r-help, unfortunately with no

I no longer get the warning after I installed r-recommended and
r-cran-kernsmooth, without upgrading to 2.10.1. Perhaps this is a
Debian specific issue.
