This seems to work, it keeps a in the internal R representation instead
of converting it to a list of lists:
In [1]: from rpy import *
RHOME= C:\Program Files\R\R-2.3.1
RVERSION= 2.3.1
RVER= 2031
RUSER= G:\
Loading the R DLL C:\Program Files\R\R-2.3.1\bin\R.dll .. Done.
Loading Rpy version 2031 .. Done.
Creating the R object 'r' .. Done
In [22]: aa=with_mode(NO_CONVERSION, r.diag)(10)
In [25]: b=r.kmeans(aa,2,10,5,"Forgy")
In [26]: b
Out[26]:
{'centers': [[0.1111111111111111,
0.1111111111111111,
0.1111111111111111,

Where is the snippet?
