- Upstream release R-3.2.3
CHANGES IN R 3.2.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* Some recently-added Windows time zone names have been added to
the conversion table used to convert these to Olson names.
(Including those relating to changes for Russia in Oct 2014, as
in PR#16503.)
* (Windows) Compatibility information has been added to the
manifests for Rgui.exe, Rterm.exe and Rscript.exe. This should
allow win.version() and Sys.info() to report the actual Windows
version up to Windows 10.
* Windows "wininet" FTP first tries EPSV / PASV mode rather than
only using active mode (reported by Dan Tenenbaum).
* which.min(x) and which.max(x) may be much faster for logical and
integer x and now also work for long vectors.
* The 'emulation' part of tools::texi2dvi() has been somewhat
enhanced, including supporting quiet = TRUE. It can be selected
by texi2dvi = "emulation".
(Windows) MiKTeX removed its texi2dvi.exe command in Sept 2015:
tools::texi2dvi() tries texify.exe if it is not found.
* (Windows only) Shortcuts for printing and saving have been added
to menus in Rgui.exe. (Request of PR#16572.)
* loess(..., iterTrace=TRUE) now provides diagnostics for
robustness iterations, and the print() method for
summary() shows slightly more.
* The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.38, a bug-fix
release.
* View() now displays nested data frames in a more friendly way.
(Request with patch in PR#15915.)
