Thank you for such an excellent work. Deducer could be very helpful
for students.
Regarding the Plot templates, so far I have not been able to save my
templates. After making the template with the Plot Builder, I select:
Export Template, I write a name for the template and click Save, but
nothing is saved. This is also the case if I try to save the plot with
data. Of course I am able to save as .png, .jpg, etc. Is there
something wrong or there is a bug?
Changing the subject, as I am interested in health sciences, several
additions for epidemiology will be very helpful, in particular
confidence intervals and been able to calculate relative risk or odds
ratios (with confidence intervals) from the contingency tables. I will
try to make the Plugin but I am not familiar with Java.
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Jose.

That does sound odd. Saving works on my systems. What operating system
are you on? What is the result of: sessionInfo() ? What is the path
that you are trying to save to?

Those would be good additions. Altering the Contingency tables dialog
would require that you program it in Java, but you could create a
dialog in R that just calculates these quantities. Take a look at

and II.
