Overview

About

Maintained by Philippe GrosjeanFirst published 2009-06-2814 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Quickly construct standard dialog boxes for your GUI, including message boxes, input boxes, list, file or directory selection, ... In case R cannot display GUI dialog boxes, a simpler command line version of these interactive elements is also provided as fallback solution.
