similar to: Poll: Does R_PAPERSIZE in /etc/R/Renviron matter?

R uses the environment variable R_PAPERSIZE to set its papersize, e.g. for postscript. It seems the modern way is to via LC_PAPER, e.g. http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/2002-05/msg00010.html and Googling will show that people expect this to work. However, that is not set on my FC3 system, and it would affect people who use en_US as their locale in, say, Austria. Should we be making use

Dear R Users: Here is a nice simple question: On Version 1.0.0, where is the file that has the paper size for plots? UNIX Dec Alpha please? (Really dumb. I know.)

Greetings, I've just set up an AirPrint server for a home office by following instructions in https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2013/154/AirPrint-in-Linux and https://github.com/jpawlowski/airprint-generate Printer works just fine except for a problem described in https://serverfault.com/questions/897140/force-cups-print-server-to-fit-to-page-if-job-is-not-a4 Text jobs sent from iOS

Hello. I am using R 1.7.1 just downloaded on Win98. With the old 1.6.2 I had modified the etc/Rprofile file as etc/Rprofile # Things you might want to change # options(width=80) # options(papersize="a4") # options(editor="notepad") # options(pager="internal") # to prefer Compiled HTML help options(chmhelp=TRUE) # to prefer HTML help # options(htmlhelp=TRUE) # to

Hi everyone, Two minor points about ?.Renviron. 1) If R_ENVIRON is not set then R defaults to `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron', not `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron.site' as stated. 2) In the details, there is a missing "way" in "`value' is processed in a similar to a Unix shell." Cheers, Jonathan. --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform =

Hi, I have Debian Testing running on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (2015, 3rd gen.). I would like to have a package library independent of the installed R version. Under Ubuntu, I used to have the following line in ~/.Renviron: R_LIBS=/usr/local/R/library:/usr/lib/R/site-library This worked fine and /usr/local/R/library showed up in .libPaths(). However, under Debian (with the same ~/.Renviron),

[RFC = Request for Comments] { Yes, the documentation for .Renviron is really not there (but the FAQ...); the rest is in ?Startup } In R's Startup (on Unix only??) {unless --no-environ is specified} ~/.Renviron (if there) is read as an 'sh' script before R is called, then R looks ((for the site-wide Rprofile and then)) for .Rprofile in the current directory and then for

Regarding user's home and working directories, is Rprofile just an old name of Renviron? or (can) should we have both files with different type of definitions? (talking about R.1.4.0 in linux).

Our lab has a lot of different unix boxes, with different hardware, and I'm assuming (perhaps wrongly) that by setting a per-user package installation directory, the packages will only work on one type of hardware. Our systems are all set up to share the same home directory (and, thus, the same .Renviron file) -- so, is there a way to set, in the .Renviron file, per-computer or

Hi, I am interested in customizing the installation of R. I have gone through the ?R Installation and Administration? manual. But some of the stuff is not clear to me and I would like to get clarifications on the following points (for a Windows installation with R_HOME=C:\\R\\R-2.9.1 ) : 1. I understand that I need to create a file, .Renviron with the following path : R_HOME\\etc\\.Renviron where

Hello experienced R-ers, I'm converting from S-Plus Win 98SE to SuSE 8.1, R 1.62 and have run into som problems. 1) When I use help.start() netscape comes up OK and all links are accessible except "Search Engine & Keywords" : search doesn't work and the keywords from base doesn't respond either. ?command within R gets netscape running and works OK. 2) I haven't

Dear Johannes, Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for helping. Here is the missing information. Here is how I installed R. This is basically how Martin Maechler showed me to install R under Ubuntu (in several versions so that they are also recognized by ESS). My goal is to adjust this to make it work for Debian: 1) sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # then add: deb

Dear List, Further to my earlier email, I note that, for me at least, R CMD check is *not* reading R_LIBS from ~/.R/check.Renviron on R 2.15.2 patched (r61228) and R Under Development (r61660). The only way I can get R CMD check to look for packages in a user-supplied library is by explicitly exporting R_LIBS set to the relevant directory. R CMD build *does* read R_LIBS from ~/.R/build.Renviron

Hi all, I added the following line on the "Renviron.site" file: R_LIBS=C:\Program Files (x86)\R\library And when I start R and run: .libPaths() I don't see this path. On windows XP it worked for me. I am now using windoes 7 (64 bit) with R 32. Is there a reason this shouldn't work? Thanks, Tal ----------------Contact

ISSUE: It looks like Rgui.exe never processes ~/.Renviron - only ./.Renviron. REPRODUCIBLE EXAMPLE: On Windows, create the following ~/.Renviron and ~/.Rprofile files: C:\Users\alice> Rscript -e "cat('FOO=123\n', file='~/.Renviron')" C:\Users\alice> Rscript -e "cat('print(Sys.getenv(\'FOO\'))', file='~/.Rprofile')" and launch

On Debian/Ubuntu, system wide environment variables and options are set in respectively /etc/R/Renviron.site and /etc/R/Rprofile.site. These files are automatically created when r-base is installed, and do not get overwritten during an upgrade. On Fedora, there is no /etc/R directory. What is the recommended place to define system wide environment variables and options on a Fedora system?

Hi An upgrade to R 3.4.1 on Ubuntu removed the default setting of R_LIBS_USER in /etc/R/Renviron. What's the rationale behind this? Thanks. Best regards Kirill

Doing package development on a Windows 7 machine, and I want to tell R check not to worry about the "suggested" packages. I realize this can be done using the ~/.R/check.Renviron file, but what directory corresponds to "~"? Is that supposed to be the user directory? Or is it some other directory? I have this _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=false (have also tried FALSE) in
