Thanks to everybody who suggested a solution. I got a handful of results,
for several shell scripts, therefore I post some of them to the list.
The main thing is to use the tr unix command.

The command in UNIX is tr - translate characters, do a man tr for more details

Here's one way to convert UPPERCASE fille names to lowercase:

for file in *[A-Z]*
do	newfile=`echo $file | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`
	mv $file $newfile
done

The following c-shell script will do it for you:

	Hi,
	I am new to Splus and I am already looking for a test
	which is not provided in the standard version, perhaps
	it is due to my lack od knowledge in statistics.

	I wanted to use a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to determine with
	which confidence I can assume that  my points comme
	from a normal distribution. Splus only gives "optical"
	tests like quantile-quantile plots.
	
	Is there any Kolmogorov-Smirnov test already writen for

	I already looked on the lib.stat.cmu.edu server.

	Thanks a lot

Here are a collection of ways of getting encapsulated postscript from
S-PLUS (and vanilla S, to some extent):

1) Dave's way.  Either use the fig() driver + fig + fig2dev -> epsfile OR
   construct your plot in a graphics window and use

        dev.print(fig, file="1.fig", height=..., width=...)

2) Use the pscript() driver with "onefile=F", OR make your plot and then use

        dev.print(pscript, onefile=F, print=F, ...)

3) Use the postscript() driver with height= and width= set explicitly, OR
   use dev.print(postscript, file="1.eps", height=4, width=5, horiz=T, ...)
   [It may be necessary to stick to one plot per file, also.]

However I have a question.  If you do make your plot and then use, for example,

        dev.print(postscript, file="1.eps", height=4, width=5, font=3, ...)

you get Helvetica as the PostScript font for characters and not font 3
(Times-roman) as requested.  The font= parameter appears to be ignored.
[The pscript() driver does not offer a font argument at all].  Also in
S-PLUS if you click on the "print graph" box using a postscript printer,
the file you get printed has Helvetica characters irrespective of the font
used in the graph on the screen.  

I realise that the X fonts and the PostScript fonts are generally from
different stables, but is there any way around this, apart from hacking
away at the raw postscript file?  It would be useful to have a par(...)
argument, for example, that set the default font for postscript files, but
this appears not to be the case.

Bill.

Subject: Inclusion of figures from S

One problem I have with fig() is that
y-axis labels are horizontal. I could surround them with \rotate{} for
LaTeX but then I can't use straight, xdvi-viewable EEPIC since rotate requires 
postscript SPECIALS. Does anyone have an elegant way around this?
I don't want to have to manually change each file with Xfig since I include
a lot of plots. I don't even know if Xfig will let me rotate text, anyway.

Also, I have requested to StatSci that they include a minimal-bounding
box option on postscript(). I know that for version 3.1 they have greatly
improved and merged pscript and postscript. I hope someday they will do
the bounding box suggestion because postscript figures included with
psfig have wasted space in them.

A gentle reminder to one and all.

(1) The S list is unmoderated.

(2) Requests to be added or deleted from the list must be send to
s-news-request@utstat.toronto.edu

(3) All responses to or from the list must be sent to s-news@utstat.toronto.edu

(4) People with broken mailers or systems that are unreachable will
be dropped from the list. It's not unusual to have 30 or 40 error
messages for each posting to the list. It takes a fair bit of my time
to examine the results and to then take appropriate action.

PLEASE examine the content of your mail before you send it and DO NOT 
assume that your local mail system will do the right thing.

Actually, Y-labels in fig() *are* rotated, it's just that xfig can't
show them on the screen. You can see it by choosing the 'edit' function
and selecting the label. It is a basic problem with X to rotate text --
as i understand it, you have to first write to a memory bitmap, rotate it,
and then display the resulting bitmap. I had some email conversation
a few months ago with a German chap who had plans to implement this in
xfig, except that he was 'very busy right now'...

I've always found the PostScript code produced by the Splus
postscript() and pscript() drivers less than satisfactory for
inclusion in other documents, LaTeX documents in particular. The best
solution I have found is to use the excellent fig() driver from
Statlib, and then use a conversion program (such as fig2dev) to
convert the resultant fig code to Encapsulated PostScript. As an added
bonus, you can also use a program such as xfig to edit the plot to
publication quality or add extra symbols (greek labels, for example)
or whatever. xfig also provides an interface to fig2dev (the `Export'
menu.) Once you have the working EPS code from fig2dev, inclusion in
LaTeX (or any other package which supports Encapsulated Postscript) is
trivial. The `psfig' macros are particularly useful for LaTeX.

Hope this helps,
Dave Smith.

Subject: No history() in S-PLUS for DOS?


The history() function in S-PLUS for DOS consists of:

history(...) {
	stop("history not available\n")
	}

I *do*, however, have the _audit file created and updated in my working
directory.  Do I have to do something special to turn on the history mechanism?

Thanks,

Stuart

Keywords: Truncated Distributions, GLM


I need to find a function that will estimate the parameters in a GLM of a
truncated Gamma distribution.

Have looked in Statlib but cannot seem to see much (in fact anything) in this
area, but this may be due to the fact that I have not used it before.

Any help gratefully received.

I'm wishing really hard!!!!
