I have prepared versions of the Venables-Ripley libraries that use
dynamically-loaded compiled code for use with S-Plus for Windows 3.2.
(N.B. do not attempt to use these with 3.1.) They are contained
in ZIP archives at
markov.stats.ox.ac.uk:/pub/Sbook2
as mass2.zip, nnet.zip, spatial.zip. Transfer these as binary files, and
collect unzip.exe if you need it. This archive can be accessed
by anonymous ftp.
As mass2.zip unpacks to library MASS, it may be necessary to rename the
earlier version before unpacking. Then (in a standard setup)
unzip mass2 -d c:\spluswin\library
unzip nnet -d c:\spluswin\library
unzip spatial -d c:\spluswin\library
will install the software. (PKZip can also be used.)
The following functions are added or speeded-up in this version
sammon
ucv bcv width.SJ
prune.tree the treefix code [use library(MASS, first=T)]
neural network software
trend surface and kriging software
point process software
Final testing is still in progress, so feedback on difficulties
would be valuable.
