R help - Nov 2003 - about .RData

Dear Sir/Madam:
I got a question about this .RData.

I wrote a R program and run it with:
nohup R BATCH a.R &
in Unix system.

However, each time it generate a .RData file, which is huge.
I add "remove" to my code, but this .RData is still there.

My question is: how can I avoid this .RData file automatically?

Thanks a lot,

Shuangge Ma

R BATCH --help

tells you:

"Further arguments starting with a '-' are considered as options as
long
as '--' was not encountered, and are passed on to the R process, which
by default is started with '--restore --save --no-readline'."

so what about specifying --no-save as in
nohup R BATCH --no-save a.R &
?
