[R] install.package("TinnR") - there is no package called 'TinnR'

[Martin Tomko]

Patrick, Romain,
thank you very much for your help!
I have found the site of the package at

http://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/tinnr/ , as Romain suggests, but when you try to download, iyou find that the package is actually not contributed to the repository, it is just a space holder for it! Patrick's 
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/TinnR/index.html
 is better, and I will give it a try... I was just not sure abouyt the versions, but it seems to be a relatively recent one, so hopefully it will work.
Thanks again!
Martin
