linear interpolation through missing data

["Lambert.Winnie" <lambert.winnie@ensco.com>]

S-PLUS6 on Windows XP

 

I found this question in 3 emails in the archive, but did not see an answer.  I have looked in my S-PLUS books, but perhaps am looking in the wrong place for the wrong thing.  I want to do a relatively simple linear interpolation across missing values in a vector, e.g.  ...850 862 875 NA NA 927 946... weighted by another non-missing (and never missing!) variable.  Is there a function for this?  If not, I can trudge through and figure out an algorithm, but would rather not waste time if I can do it in a one-liner.

 

Thanks much.
