Overview

About

Maintained by ORPHANEDCRAN page ↗Repository ↗

Provides a toolkit-independent API for building interactive GUIs. At least one of the 'gWidgetsXXX packages', such as gWidgetstcltk, needs to be installed. Some icons are on loan from the scigraphica project http://scigraphica.sourceforge.net.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/gWidgets/gWidgets_0.0-54.2.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "gWidgets_0.0-54.2.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.0-54.2) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
