Hi, good evening rkward community,

To extend the functionality of rkward through the build in functionality of rcmdr's plugins, would it make sense to think of adding a menu, say, "Rcmdr" which gives access to the dropdown menus available in Rcmdr so that the interfaces pop-up or would it be simpler to just reimplement the functionality in rkward?  I thinking mostly of the nice interfaces for accessing qcc, factominer, and orloca.

Thank you,
Jon

I'll provide a short initial feedback:

\- In the long run, all Rcmdr functionality should be reimplemented in RKWard.
\- In the short term, a solution along your lines sounds like a good idea. However, I am not currently sure, whether and how this could be done. I will need to investigate this, but some other issues are higher up in priority ATM.

This is not quite what you're asking for, but may be of interest:

In RKWard 0.5.1, you can now \(again, after a long time\) invoke the Rcmdr interface from within RKWard in the usual way \(by typing "library\(Rcmdr\)" in the console\). Most features work as expected, this way.
