cannot open file 'man'

[petzi53]

I installed all the other files you mentioned in the Reade.me. But with WRScpp I got an error:

Error: Failed to install 'WRScpp' from GitHub: System command error, exit status: 1, stderr: E> Warning in file(con, "r") : E> cannot open file 'man': No such file or directory

I used the command:
remotes::install_github("mrxiaohe/WRScpp")

Same issue. It would be fantastic to get this resolved, as I really need the package for my thesis data

Hi, did anyone solve this installation issue? I am struggling to install on R studio on a Mac

It seems like the man folder might be removed or missing from the repo, and nobody cares to add it.

A solution might be to download the WRScpp repository from Github as a zip file. Unzip it and put it where your R Library on your computer lives. Then R should be able to detect the library.

An untested alternative is to goto the WRS GitHub page https://github.com/nicebread/WRS/tree/master/pkg and get the man directory there and change the lines for the names and aliases accordingly to the from WRS to WRScpp.

This is pretty hacky and might not work.
