[R] why package gregmisc did not work

[Dimitris Rizopoulos]

Hi xiyanlon,

It gives you the reason why `library(gregmisc)' doen't work:

bundle 'gregmisc' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
^^^^^^

So it's no longer a library. Look at

http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/packages/04/0056.html

for more info

Best,
Dimitris
