You did specifically write in your post that you could use sed which suggests that you had it on your system. If that is not, in fact, the case you could get it from Duncan Murdoch's Rtools distribution: http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/ which you would need in any case if you intend to develop R packages on Windows. I did run a test on my own Windows Vista system prior to posting so it certainly does work on Windows under the assumptions of the post. -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
