Subject: R-beta: Problem with help
I am new to R. Just installed it on an SGI running IRIX5.3. The install
seemed to go fine. Some basic commands worked as did the demo(). However,
I get the following when trying to run help at the command line in R.
> help()
Error in gsub(pattern, replacement, x, ignore.case, extended) : POSIX regular expressions not available
>
My best guess is that configure was unable to find regcomp. Is that
the problem? If so, what is it and how do I fix it. Other
suggestions?
Thanks,
mg
