Thanks for the reply, but ... No, I am not interested in the convolution function defined in the R-extensions manual. I want to use a fast fourier transform version implemented in C returning values to another C function. So the question is: How do I call the fft supplied by R in C? (just like it is possible to use other R functions in C using #include <Rmath.h> etc)
