I run a batch file with the following command in Windows XP: C:\R\R-2.12.1\bin\Rterm.exe --no-save --no-restore <C:\users\me\file.R> C:\users\me\file.out 2>&1 Is there any way to get only the output of R in file.out, without getting all the code from file.R too? Any help greatly appreciated, Mikkel

One does not generally use the interactive version of R for batch execution. See: http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/utils/html/BATCH.html -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT

Also in the batchfiles distribution, http://batchfiles.googlecode.com, there is a file #Rscript.bat, that can be used to turn an R script into a Windows batch file. #Rscript without arguments gives instructions. -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com

The --no-timing option stops proc.time() from running at the end. For example from the command prompt I can run 'sample.R' using 32 bit R: C:\R\R-2.12.1\bin\i386\R CMD BATCH --slave --no-timing "sample.R" "sampleout.txt" HTH, Josh> Any help greatly appreciated, > Mikkel > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.-- Joshua Wiley Ph.D. Student, Health Psychology University of California, Los Angeles http://www.joshuawiley.com/
