R help - Jul 2009 - get a vector with filenames with a certain extension in a folder

Hi
I got a script that works on file with the extension ".qed" that are
al located in a folder '~/works/'

Is there are R function that will fetch all the filenames from the works subdir,
similar to
'ls ~/works/*.qed'


Thanks in advance

Hi there,

try this:

setwd("/home/mcr")
dir(path=".", pattern=".txt$")

OR

dir(path="/home/mcr/.", pattern=".txt$")

$ means finished with ".txt"

good luck,
