NEWS file for the svKomodo package

Changes in version 0.9-59

• R is now configured to be used with SciViews Komodo (Komodo Edit + SciViews-K) when the package is attached. It was previously configured when it was loaded.

• Temporary objects are now stored in SciViews:TempEnv instead of TempEnv and consequently, svMisc >= 0.9-68 is needed.

• Further protection before looking for komodo with locate: (1) if locate is not there, do not try to use it, and (2) do not use it on Mac OS X.

Changes in version 0.9-58

• The package was not loading correctly when not on .libPaths. Fixed.

Changes in version 0.9-57

• svKomodo creates now at loading a .Last.sys() function in SciViews:TempEnv indicating to Komodo Edit that R has quit. This is required to update R menus there.

• The SciViews-K configuration file is not saved from here anymore (CRAN now does not accept packages that write files elsewhere than in R temp dir). This configuration file is now created by the SciViews-K Komodo plugin, in

  svStart.R

  .

Changes in version 0.9-56

• NEWS file reworked to use the new Rd format.

Changes in version 0.9-55

• On some machines, system("locate Komodo ...") fails. Added some more checking in this situation.

• In .onLoad(), slight reworking of the svPager() function to avoid calling .Internal(file.show(....)).

Changes in version 0.9-54

• Startup code is changed... a part of the code in

  svStart.R

  in the SciViews-K plugin is now executed here!

• Save and load SciViews config in

  ~/.SciViewsConfig.RData

  file, so that it is possible to reconfigure R for SciViews just by reloading the present package.

Changes in version 0.9-53

• koCmd() can now use either socket or file for communication with Komodo.

Changes in version 0.9-52

• The package is created from svGUI 0.9-51 (functions that concern interaction with Komodo Edit/IDE). guiInstall(), guiUninstall(), guiRefresh() & guiAutoRefresh() are also renamed koXXX(), in order to better match their purpose (to communicate with Komodo Edit/IDE only), while the previous implementation was intended for more general purpose. Since, it was never used elsewhere, narrowing its scope allows to simplify the code greatly!

• The callback mechanism to run commands from a client is now moved from svSocket package to here, so that it can also be used in the svHttp package.

• koRefresh() now look at the "changed" attribute of the object returned by objList(), and so, can make the difference between no changes, and changes, but the environment got no more objects.

• For additional changes in these functions in svGUI up to version 0.9-51, see its corresponding
