Installing IRKernel on OSX 10.11, the dirty way

1. Make sure your PATH setting in R has your anaconda installation in it. Two options:

   a. Put anaconda in your $PATH and start R from command line.

   b. make new file ~/.Renviron and change path manually:

    PATH=.....
   

   You can check your path variable in R like:

    Sys.getenv()["PATH"]
   

2. Install rzmq package:

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zeromq/cppzmq/master/zmq.hpp
    mv zmq.hpp /usr/local/include/
   

   From inside R, do:

    require('devtools')
    install_github('armstrtw/rzmq')
   

3. Install rest (within R):

    install.packages(c('repr','IRkernel','IRdisplay'),
    repos = c('http://irkernel.github.io/', getOption('repos')))
   

4. make kernel available to Jupyter:

    IRkernel::installspec()
   

5. Done!
