Good grief. Adding a report function is not going to make R less flexible. Don't you want to use a tool that's relevant to the rest of the world? That world is much bigger then your world. This is ridiculous.
Looks like some people are complaining about me criticizing R and the people who defend it. Good grief again. ________________________________ From: David Hajage-2 [via R] <ml-node+2333348-1227050197-138...@n4.nabble.com> Sent: Sat, August 21, 2010 4:54:12 AM Subject: Re: R reports Just show us what is the kind of report you want to do, and you will perhaps get a solution to reproduce it.
