Worked very well with R 2.3.1, but does not work since I updated R.
I also updated Tinn R just now. But the problem is still there.
R can be started, but nothing can be sent to R to execute. Is this a bug of the program? Could anybody help me? Is downgrading R the only option? Thanks!

Further to my previous two postings, I now seem to have resolved my problems & I hope I can help others by telling you about them. Two things are not mentioned in the installation instructions:
When you first start Tinn-R you must be working under the userid where you want to use the program OR you must reconfigure to ensure the various .txt & .r files go into the right user's Application Data file.
You must execute the (re-)configure instructions line by line, not using either selection or all, because the files that transfer the instructions from Tinn to R are not yet set up.
Hope this wasn't obvious to everyone but me!

Thanks for your reply, JCFaria. I am using Windows XP SP3. I changed the Rprofile.site file according to your post http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=864071 ,
and upadated the path in the menu Options|Application|R|Path|.
Rterm can be used normally. Rgui can be started with several packages loaded successfully. But whenever I send some code to Rgui, it just got no code but the cursor moved to the next line.
Do I need to change other settings? Have not figured out the problem. Kind of frustrated.
Thanks again!

I just tried on another computer which had no R or Tinn-R before. But I got the same problem. Rterm is OK, but Rgui does not get input from Tinn-R. This computer has XP SP2.
Please help to check. Thanks a lot!

I am experiencing the same problems and have found the following with R 2.8.0 and Tinn-R 2.1.1.6.
1) On Japanese Windows Vista:
+ Installation is no problem
+ Configuring rProfile.site works fine
+ Additional packages are nicely installed automatically
- Erratic behavior with regard to closing & starting Rgui. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
- Even if Rgui isn't open, Tinn-R seems to think it is and when you tell Tinn-R to close Rgui it will grab a window of another program and adjust its size or put it in focus
- In the R explorer in the tools window on the left the R explorer does not show any packages, only .GlobaEnv and no objects
- The send line commands mostly do not work. Changing shortcuts does not help.
- Rterm works fine
2) On Japanese XP
- Exactly the same behavior as above... This means it's not a Vista issue...
3) On English XP
+++ No problem what so ever... Works wonderfully... Maybe a language thing?
With R 2.7.1 and Tinn-R 2.1.1.6
4) On clean Japanese Windows Vista without any R and Tinn-R:
+ Seems to work fine, although there is a glitch in sending lines (it sometimes requires two ‘send line’ commands...
5) On Japanese Windows Vista with previously R and Tinn-R installed but then uninstalled (including appdata folder and registry sweep).
- the same problems as described in (1)
5) On Japanese XP with everything uninstalled
- the same problems as described in (2)
I’d like to check with 2.8.0 on English Vista but it’s working at home with 2.7.2 it seems so I don’t want to screw it up…
So far, it seems that there is an issue between Rgui of 2.8.0 (and 2.7.2) and Tinn-R on Japanese systems. Maybe this is a language thing. It worked fine on an English XP system… Tinn-R can still be used, albeit it with the Rterm interface...
Hope this helps…

Thanks for all previous replies! I wanna add one more point --- All systems I tried on is Chinese XP. This may indicate it is a language issue, even though it would be kind of surprising. Hope it will help with the development of Tinn-R. Thanks again!

I'm a Japanese, and I use Japanese Windows XP.
I met the same problem.
Open "Control Panel" > "Region and Language option" > "Regional Options" dialog, and select "English(United States)".
After that operation, Tinn-R works without any problem.
Please excuse my poor English.

Great job, Daiichiro! It worked for me, even though I am afraid there might be some problems with viewing east Asian languages with the "English(US)" option! Thanks again! Hope we will see a fix in the next release.

Hi Daiichiro. That's a good find! I'll try it tomorrow at the university. I am now working at home with an English-language computer without issues. At the university I use it with Rterm only.
I have one issue remaining (also on the EN computer), which is that sometimes when I have multiple tabs (files) open in Tinn-R and I switch between tabs it hangs in a tab and I can't switch. Often the program crashes after that...
Still, Tinn-R is a great little program!!

I cannot make Rgui or Rterm work properly either. I am using XP & working in English. I think there is a problem with Admin privileges. I am running without Admin (for security reasons) and when I try to execute some code I get an Rgui error C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Application Data\Tinn-R\tmp\selection.r. As you see, TINN/R is trying to access a privileged file. Incidently, C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Application Data\Tinn-R\ does not contain a tmp folder - could it be that it was not created because of privilege?
Investigating further.

Seem to have fixed the problem I reported earlier today. It is evidently essential to have to first Tinn-R session under a userid with admin privileges otherwise the Rgui connection does not get set up properly. After the first session things seem to work when running without privilege.

Hello,
I can help you, but, please, send me more information...

Hello Pensen,
Hummm... I've been installing Tinn-R 2.1.1.6 and R 2.8.0 in a lot of hardware and software platform without problem.
Please, could you send me (joseclaudio.faria@gmail.com) a file with all output text of Rgui.exe when starting?
Clear the R Console (Rgui) and send me a picture of the R Console with:
type it in the Rgui:
a=rnorm(1e2); a
sent from Tinn-R:
b=rnorm(1e3); b
The first line you will to type inside of R console and the second, you will send from Tinn-R.
HTH,
JCFaria

hi Faria
I met the same problem like Pensen. I installed a fresh R 2.8.0 and Tinn-R 2.1.1.6, and follow the instructions in http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=864071
Just as described by Pensen, Rterm can be used normally. Rgui can be started with several packages loaded successfully. But whenever I send some code to Rgui, it just got no code but the cursor moved to the next line.

The last two ">" were generated by sending "b=rnorm(1e3);b" from Tinn-R.

You see, nor did it process the command in backgroud.
Forgive my broken English :)

I just tried it on English XP. No problem at all! So it should be a compatibility problem with languages.
