Hi all, I started recently to use R with linux(ubuntu) but I often get code written under windows or mac. I have two questions. When I encounter a function which is not in R linux what is the best way to find the right linux function for it? So next time I can help myself. I browsed the web for a long time and could not find anything to the the function zip.unpack. Thats actually my second question. Does anyone know the right linux function to unzip zip archive in R linux. Thanks Christoph [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
To answer the second question, under Debian, I have the following solution:> apropos("zip")[1] "unzip" "zip" "zip.file.extract" 'unzip' or 'zip.file.extract' should give you what you want. To answer the first question, after many years of using R with Linux, it is the first time I see an OS-specific function... I'm probably not the best person to answer. Mathieu.

You refer to R linux and ask for linux functions, which sounds as if you want an OS leve function call. I think you mean that while in R you have some code that calls a function, and the function is undefined.> zip.unpack.if that's the offending function, where did the code that invoked it come from?> > Thats actually my second question.
