R help - Dec 2006 - How to load Rcmd without Commander() ?

I would like to use the reliability() function in Rcmdr package, but
not the GUI, so I would to load Rcmd without Commander() running
automatically.

Is there any easy way to get it? Thanks.

Dear Ronggui,

The Commander() function is called in the Rcmdr .onAttach() function, so
library(Rcmdr) automatically starts up the GUI. You could use
Rcmdr:::reliability(S), where S is the covariance matrix among the items,
without libraryI(Rcmdr). Perhaps somewhat better would be to make a copy of
the function in the global environment via reliability <-
Rcmdr:::reliability.

I hope this helps,
 John
