Dear HajkD,
I tried to install orthologr in a Win 8 laptop, running R Studio 0.98.1091 + R version 3.1.2 (2014-10-31) -- "Pumpkin Helmet", Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit), and Bioconductor version 3.0 (BiocInstaller 1.16.5).

When I tried to install orthologr, I got the following message:

devtools::install_github("HajkD/orthologr", build_vignettes = TRUE, dependencies = TRUE)
Downloading github repo HajkD/orthologr@master

Could you help me?

Thank you very much in advance,

I found out how to work it out... maybe you can add it to the readme file =)

Here is how I solved this problem on my Windows 8 computer:

Install Rtools
Locate the folder that Rtools is installed. In my case it is at C:\Rtools.
Add C:\Rtools\bin path to the system path.
Adding C:\Rtools\bin to the system path:

Go to Control Panel >> System and Security >> System
Go to Advanced System Settings
Open Advanced tab
Click Environmental Variables... button
Select Path variable and click Edit button
If there is nothing as a "Variable Value" you can simply write C:\Rtools\bin. If there is already a >value, then add ;C:\Rtools\bin to the end of it.
Click OK, OK...
Restart R, it should work.

Hope this helps other Windows users that are interested in your R package!

Best,
Andres
