Note that FSA now depends on R 2.11-1 or greater. If you are using less than R 2.11.1 then you will need to upgrade (see the r-project site).

FSA depends on several packages being installed in your R installation. As this package is not distributed from CRAN you must install these packages manually. A simple way to do this is to copy the code below (just a source() command) and paste it into the R console. Note that if you have not previously identified a CRAN mirror then you will be prompted to do so. At times this prompt may be 'buried' under other open windows; thus, you should be on the lookout for this prompt (in Windows keep an eye on your taskbar).

source("http://www.rforge.net/FSA/InstallFSA.R")

You should get no errors following the previous code. However, you can type the following two lines of code into R to see if "things" are working properly.

FSA relies on the NCStats package which ultimately relies on the rJava package which might need to be installed manually from its source at the rforge.net site. This is accomplished with ...

install.packages('rJava',,'http://www.rforge.net/')

Your Java installation must also be up-to-data, see java.com.

I have had problems (for some reason) with tcltk installing properly. Thus, you may have to install the tcltk package manually through CRAN. Other packages available through CRAN that are installed in this process are shown below. In some instances you may have to install these manually as well.

The code from the sourced file above can be viewed in this file.
