UsingR package for S-Plus

The file UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz contains an Splus package for Splus version 8 of the UsingR package. Unfortunately, there are issues with the package: the function usingR() doesn't work; and the data sets' documentation isn't found by help(). To install the package, the command

Splus INSTALL UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz

works from the command line if you have permission. Otherwise, the -l switch is needed:

Splus INSTALL -l ~/MySLib UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz
