[rkward-devel] Using two versions of R with RKward

Dear Thomas and colleagues,

I believe my situation is not too uncommon and so your answer to this question may help others in making the best of rkward.

In Windows I regularly have multiple versions of R installed and do use for compatibility reason some older versions of R. That's easy since the Rgui is separate from the editor and I just double click on the older .exe.

On linux (ubuntu 10.04) rkward is blended in with R, so I wonder how it's possible to configure rkward to pick up another version of R.

My second question is, how to "move" packages from one version of R to another. As under Windows, is it just a matter of copy and paste into \lib?

Thank you and happy new year.

Horace W Tso
