Hi Shane,
Thanks for your reply, I looked into PypeR but I will not be able to make
it work on my PC. I also looked into pyRserve which is a working
alternative to RPy2. However, I would rather use RPy2 which seems to better
suit my needs according to this SO thread :
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5630441/how-do-rpy2-pyrserve-and-pyper-compare
Regards,
S.
