Issues with installation instructions under OSX

[bguiastr]

In the Installing_nlmixr.pdf file they are a couple issues for the OSX instructions:

1. Is it currently not possible to copy and paste commands in R from the online pdf version on github > Suggest to change to an HTML format
2. To install packages from github I believe that the syntax should be: devtools::install_github('nlmixrdevelopment/nlmixr ') not devtools::install_github('nlmixrdevelopment/nlmixr', repos = NULL, type = 'source') which gave erros. The same thing applies to the RxODE.
3. For RxODE I got the following error even though I have gfortran (v.6.1) installed.

* installing *source* package ‘RxODE’ ...
** libs
** arch - 
echo "make libodeaux.a in ode/ ..."
make libodeaux.a in ode/ ...
(cd ode; make CC="`"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R" CMD config CC`" FC="`"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R" CMD config FC`" CFLAGS="`"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R" CMD config CFLAGS` -fPIC" FFLAGS="`"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R" CMD config FFLAGS` -fPIC" libodeaux.a)
gfortran-4.8 -g -O2 -fPIC  -c -o opkda2.o opkda2.f
make[1]: gfortran-4.8: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [opkda2.o] Error 1
make: *** [libodeaux] Error 2
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘RxODE’

I was able to solve the issue using this StackOverflow post.

4. I just came to realize that RxODE is now available on CRAN and this should be mentioned in the instructions it would prevent the installation issues.

Dear Benjamin,

Thank you for sharing your experience in installing on OS X! I have updated the installation instructions, mentioning that RxODE is now available on CRAN (make sure you get the version after 1 December), and I have added an rtf version of the installation document as well to make copying commands easier.

Kind regards,

Rik
