Try install.packages("ellipse"). Note the quotes. Sean

Hi Sachin, it is on CRAN: http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/ellipse.DESCRIPTION 1. Before sending off a mail to hundreds of people, you could have done a simple Google search and found it. 2. Why did you think this was a Bioconductor question? 3. In "install.packages2(ellipse)" you need to put the package name into quotation marks otherwise R looks for a variable of that name.
