That seems OK. Are you trying to install the RCurl package from source? IIRC, the "configure" script is commonly used in GNU-style, compile-from-source installations. -- Mike On Fri, Nov 1, 2013 at 8:38 PM, Rainer Schuermann wrote: > # ls -l `which curl-config` > -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6327

Or do you mean you want to write the gridded output of an interpolation you did (perhaps using kriging) in gstat as an ESRI ASCII Grid file for reading into a GIS? If so, you can probably do it with writeGDAL from the rgdal package, or writeRaster from the raster package. I don't really know what

Dear Sarah, It's generally a good idea to include a reproducible example if you want to get help with a problem, but in this case it's a safe bet that the problem is that the model you specified has no variance or covariance parameters for the variables x1 and x2, which, I assume, you mean to b
