I first encountered the error referenced here:
which is that I couldn't install rpy2 because '.sh' isn't recognized by the default windows terminal as a command. To get around that, I'm using a Git Bash terminal, but then I get the error mentioned here:
Installing the R interpeter and R as a shared library uder the same tree
However, the solution in that post is for a Linux install only (I think).
As I understood that post, I should navigate to the bin/ directory in R and run ./configure (which doesn't exist in my directory). Any thoughts on how to fix this error for a Windows install?
