[R] Problem with Tinn-R communicating with REvolution R

[Philippe Grosjean]

Hello,

DDE communication requires and additional 'dde' Tcl package. That one is 
installed usually with the default Tcl/Tk 8.4/8.5 under Windows, but it 
seems Revolution R uses a different install where the dde Tcl package is 
not installed, or is not accessible where Tcl think it  should be. One 
solution would be to install a full Tcl/Tk from ActiveState and use it 
instead (read Windows FAQ, I think instruction is there).
Best,

Philippe
