Dear All I inserted a frequently used function (subroutine) right into my Rprofile.site which allows me to run it each time-works great. However, this approach is obviously suitable for a short function or a small number of functions. Instead of inserting the lines in Rprofile.site, is there a way to insert one line pointing to (fetching) the function in a local drive, similar to #include c:\path\... in Gauss?

or put them in an R package with some appropriate name like "YenMisc", then include "library(YenMisc)" in "Rprofile.site". This has the added advantage that you can easily share YenMisc with others.

Spencer Thanks! The first approach (source("...)" worked forme. To "put them in an R package", if you tell me what to read to learn it, I will. I am relatively new to R, content to just do the minimum for now to program my own likelihood function using optim. Thanks. again. ________________________________________ From: Spencer Graves [spencer.graves at structuremonitoring.com] Sent: Sunday, November 27, 2011 10:42 PM To: Yen, Steven T Cc: r-help at r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] Rprofile.site or put them in an R package with some appropriate name like "YenMisc", then include "library(YenMisc)" in "Rprofile.site".
