I created a portable version of the R language for statistical computing and graphics. R is available as Free Software under the terms of the Free Software Foundation's GNU General Public License in source code form. There is a portable version of R available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/rportable/files/ but it is hard to find and has not been updated recently. I was wondering if we could add this app to the portableapps.com site.
The appinfo for the version I built is:
[Format]
Type=PortableApps.comFormat
Version=2.0
[Details]
Name=R Portable
AppID=R-Portable
Publisher=R Development Core Team
Homepage=http://r-project.org/
Category=Development
Description=R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing
Language=Multilingual
[License]
Shareable=true
OpenSource=true
Freeware=true
CommercialUse=true
[Version]
PackageVersion=2.14.0.0
DisplayVersion=2.14.0
[Control]
Icons=1
Start=R-Portable.exe
Where is R 2.14.0. I really need it. Every time I update it, I need to reinstall the libraries. I hope after updating, they will use the same libraries.
This is really amazing AND useful. Can we add it to the apps list? I'd download it and use it right away. And it would also make it easier to spread the word both on this site and on the R program/platform.
