This email is to inform you about the release of version '2.7.0' of 'R'
through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found
at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/r/

The changes in this release are as follows:
The default graphics device for non-interactive use is now pdf()
rather than postscript(). The default width and height for pdf() and
bitmap() have been changed to 7 inches to match the screen devices.
Most users of the X11() device will see a new device that has
different fonts, anti-aliasing of lines and fonts, and supports
semi-transparent colors. Considerable efforts have been made to make
the default output from graphics devices as similar as possible (and
in particular close to that from postscript/pdf). There were many
other enhancements. 

Release focus:
5 - Major feature enhancements

Project description:
R is a language and environment for statistical computing and
graphics. It is similar to S, which was developed at Bell
Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of
statistical and graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling,
statistical tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering,
etc.). R is designed as a true computer language with control-flow
constructions for iteration and alternation, and it allows users to
add additional functionality by defining new functions. For
computationally intensive tasks, Fortran and C code can be linked and
called at run time.
