Updated RShell Plugin Available

Hello,

I have updated the Rshell plugin to be compatible with R 2.7+ (and the newest Rserve version). This version is also backwards compatible with R 2.3+ and the correspondig Rserve version. The new Rshell plugin requires Taverna 1.7.1.

The version has some of improvements:

  • Support for PDF
  • Lesser port types and therefore easier to use (but is still backwards compatible with older versions of Rshell!)
  • Syntax highlighting

The installation is a bit more complex than other plugins, because the old Rshell shipped with Taverna 1.7.1. needs to be disabled. However, with the instructions, it should be easy.

This page also includes a user manual of Rshell and some small example workflows.

Feel free to ask questions…

Best wishes,

Ingo Wassink
