Abstract:

Carapace is a user interface environment suitable for use with statistical software such as R. It uses the wxWidgets library to provide input/output windows, graphics windows, user-specified menus and modal dialog boxes, and some dynamic interactive graphics with native look and feel on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux-GTK. I will describe some of what Carapace provides and give an overview of how you use it.
