getOpenMx.R no longer a GUI

After running into some issues with tcl/tk, we've decided to change the getOpenMx.R script to not rely on the GUI.

Changes:

  • Typing source('https://openmx.ssri.psu.edu/getOpenMx.R') now produces a question prompt. The 'Multithreaded' option is chosen by default. The multithreaded option will produce much faster results for some OpenMx scripts, however, for Mac OS 10.7 users who are not using the macports version of the gcc compiler, OpenMx can crash. For these users the 'Sequential' OpenMx installation option is available.
  • For those users who still want a purely non-interactive method to install OpenMx, the following can be typed in a R terminal session to install OpenMx:
    • Multithreaded:

      repos <- c('https://openmx.ssri.psu.edu/packages/')
      install.packages(pkgs=c('OpenMx'), repos=repos)
    • Sequential:

      repos <- c('https://openmx.ssri.psu.edu/sequential/')
      install.packages(pkgs=c('OpenMx'), repos=repos, configure.args=c('--disable-openmp'))
