getting a windows environment variable in r
...2000. if I try in a dos window:
set dog=cow
echo %dog%
i get cow (what I want)
then i start rterm
system("echo %dog%",intern=T)
gives "%dog%"
I can of course do something like
set dog=cow
echo %dog% >jnk.rin
and then start rterm and
jnk<-read.table("jnk.rin")
wantthis<-as.character(V1[1])
wantthis now has what I want
Are there simpler methods?
thanx
