similar to: RGui Titlebar

¡Hola! ¿Alguien sabe si existe una función en R que devuelve el nombre del área de trabajo (workspace) en uso si éste ha sido guardado anteriormente? Con getwd() R me devuelve la carpeta de trabajo, pero si en ésta tengo varios áreas de trabajo guardados, p.e. a.RData y b.RData, ¿cómo podría saber en cuál estoy trabajando si por un despiste no me acordara cuál he abierto anteriormente (sin tener

I hope others may find this useful. I use R in many different directories. By adding the following line to the .Rprofile file: utils:::setWindowTitle(paste("-",getwd())) the titlebar of each R instance shows the directory from which it was started. I have tested this with rterm.exe and rgui.exe under Windows and with RECENT versions of R only. ----- For changing directories

Hello everyone, I'm wondering if anyone is have wine 1.3.35 in virtual desktop not draw the titlebar and the frame?

Surely there' s a way to obtain the "window name" -which appears on the Window Manager' s Titlebar- for running processes, right?. Well, I can't find it... I mean, the names that appear below each icon when you alt-tab to switch an app to the foreground. Is there a simple way to obtain that data along with matching PIDs, from a Bash script? any built-in tools that provide

hist(rbinom(1000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,300)) gives a histogram with "touching bars" hist(rbinom(100000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,30000)) gives a histogram with space between the bars. is there a way to control the space betweent he bars easily? -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at

typeof applied to a factor always seems to return "integer", independently of the type of the levels. This has a strange side effect. When a variable is "imported" into a data frame, its type changes. character variables automatically are converted to factors when imported into data frames. Here is an example: > v1<-1:3 >

In some languages there is a function gensym() which returns a new unique name (in the current environment). This is quite helpful when one has to do temporary assignments. I could not find such a function in R. Is there one? -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at Phone: +43-1-4277-38624 Fax: +43-1-4277-9386

Hi, I'm trying to combine a VBA macro and a R package. I've installed the R-(D)COM and the R-excel interface by Neuwirth. They seem to work both. However I would like to display the r-generated data in an Excel sheet as an array but I don't manage. Here is an example of my source: Sub doR() Call RInterface.StartRServer Call RInterface.RRun("library(mdnn)") Call

Hola! I am doing some minimal changes on the package SenSrivastava to make it fit for R2.0.0 (This package passed Rcmd check on earlier versions of R, and are passing the CRAN daily checks!)

Now i get (running in an Xemacs shell): installing R.css in C:/R/rw2000dev/src/gnuwin32/SenSrivastava.Rcheck ---------- Making package SenSrivastava ------------ adding

Dear all, I have recently experienced something with the function order I cannot explain: The help(order) (which I admit having overlooked before) rises even more my confusion... The following lines made me think order() was returning the 'order' each value in a vector would take when sorted. > a <- c(4.1, 3.2, 6.1) > order(a) [1] 2 1 3 Doing > plot(a,

This may be Windows specific, so not appropriate for this List... Currently, when I'm in console of Rgui, the status bar says a simple message "R majer ver. minor ver. - A Language and Environment" which I know. When I'm in plot area, it says "R Graphics" which I know, again. I think it is very useful if statusbars says current directory, because in my daily use I
