UsingR package for S-Plus

The file <A HREF="/UsingR/UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz">UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz</A> 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 <PRE> Splus INSTALL UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz </PRE> works from the command line if you have permission. Otherwise, the –l switch is needed: <PRE> Splus INSTALL –l ~/MySLib UsingR_0.1-4-SplusVersion.tar.gz </PRE>
