I've seen a number of issues with the loading of workspaces discussed previously, but here's another one... I simply can't load any saved workspace at all... Here's an example, starting with an empty workspace and creating a single variable "a".> a<-1:5> save.image("a.Rdata")> rm(a) > load("a.Rdata")Error in function () : unused argument(s) (quote(1:5)) Any clue? I'm using R 2.13.1 on WinXP. Thanks in advance Dominic [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Your example works without error for me; R version 2.13.1 Patched on Ubuntu Linux. No idea why you are having problems. cheers, Rolf Turner On 09/09/11 05:24, Monsieur Do wrote:> I've seen a number of issues with the loading of workspaces discussed previously, but here's another one...

Are you doing something in your profile.site file or loading a package that masks "load"? It seems that you're deparsing (or parsing, I can never remember which is which) the literal results of the load function. Does it work if you do this? save(a, file='a.RData') On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 12:24 PM, Monsieur Do <nonaupourriel@yahoo.ca> wrote:> I've seen a number of issues with the loading of workspaces discussed > previously, but here's another one...

Hi Gene, Your cue to the profile was right. This line in my .Rprofile is the culprit: makeActiveBinding(".",function() .Last.value,env=.GlobalEnv) It's unfortunate, because I really like that feature (typing . to get the value returned by the last executed command).
