Thanks for bugging me ;-). It finally seems that I have gotten over the
major roadblocks with respect to PL/R on Windows.

Please find plr.dll here:
   http://www.joeconway.com/plr/plr.zip

It was compiled with VC 2005, against Postgres 8.4.x and R-2.10.x. and
is reported to work against somewhat older versions of R, but will not
work with earlier PostgreSQL. I'll have to build a binary for 8.3.x
specifically. Before I do anything more, however, I was hoping some
people might test this. (Note to Regina -- plr_environ() now works)

There is presently no installer. Drop plr.dll in your $libdir directory
-- typically that will be somewhere similar to:

C:\Program Files\Postgresql\8.4\lib

The zip also includes plr.sql which must be run to load plr into your
database, and a doc folder with html and pdf documentation.

Please let me know if you test -- successful or not.

Thanks,

Joe
