similar to: Using the Rprofile file to automatically plot data on Startup of R version 2.0.1.

Dear John, I belive your problem has to do with the sequence of startup. I think that .Rprofile is called before the required libraries are attached. You might like to try putting your code into a .First() function and run it that way.

No. You put the _whole_ thing into .First(), not just the plot statement. One possibility is to have the code in a script file (say myscript.R) and define .First as follows: .First <- function() source("myscript.R") Haven't try it myself, though.

This summer I and a colleague built a package for R v 1.9.1 containing C-code under Windows. That only worked for us when R was installed in c:\program files\R. Now I have R v 2.0.1 and the same package won't build. I get the following C:\Program Files\R\rw2001\bin>rcmd check "c:\program files\r\rw2001\src\library\ sag" * checking for working latex ...latex: not found NO * using

Hello, I'm having some difficulty understanding the documentation relative to the startup files with R-Aqua 2.0.1 for Mac OS X. Specifically, I'm wondering: where does R search for the startup files (my home directory at Users:<me>:?); how should they be named (.RProfile will be treated by Mac OS X as a system file and be hidden, so I'm wondering if it should just be

Hello everyone. I am using R 2.0.1 in windows XP sp2 and I want to create a package. I get the following errors when I run these commands at the dos prompt. Please help. Thanks.

In reference to the thread http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04/10/0859.html I have the same problem updating packages with newly-installed version of released version of R 2.0.1. Previous posts refer to a bug in windows. I wonder if there is a work-around? This probably should go to R-help but it follows on from the post in R-devel. Apologies in advance. OS: Windows XP Professional,

Dear R community, I am running R 2.0.1 on a Windoze XP OS. I recently upgraded from R 1.9x to 2.0.1 and I am currently upgrading a my personal function packages. My other packages compiled without a hitch but I am having a difficult time with my largest package. Can someone please help me with the following error message "Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error on line

Hello, I am new to R and have read the documents related to graphics but have not come across a description of how to change the maximum scale on a graph. Below is sample code that sets up a plot window with a 0 Minimum to 10 Maximum, X and Y coordinate system: x <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) y <- c(1,1.5,2,2.5,3,3.5,4,4.5,5,5.5) plot(0:10, 0:10, type = "n" )# setting up coord.

I'm trying to source a file automatically every time I start R. I tried adding the following .First function in a file Rprofile.site in my $R_HOME/etc/ directory (verified $R_HOME by Sys.getenv()) as well as in a file .Rprofile in my $HOME directory and .Rprofile in the working directory: .First <- function(){ source(file.path(Sys.getenv("HOME"), "R",

Hello all: I have written a few R scripts and am trying to turn them into a package for submission to CRAN. All of these scripts are R code only, no C or C++ or anything else. I'm working with R 2.0.1 running on a Windows XP machine. So far running ">rcmd install --build --docs=normal mypkge" seems to work (i.e., the library "mypkge" is installed in R\rw2001\library and

[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

When I do a R CMD build --binary then I get the messages at the end of this post unless I specify LazyLoad: no in the DESCRIPRION file. If I do that then everything proceeds smoothly. R CMD check proceeds smoothly in either case. Is there something I should be aware of that is causing this message when I do not turn off lazy loading? I am using Windows XP and R 2.0.1 beta

Hello, I'm trying to create a source package (on Win2k system). I followed the instructions from R-extns.pdf, installed ActivePerl and RTools with setting the DOS path to it.

Hello, I run websockets 1.1.1 from R 2.15 without any problems. I would like to deploy R script running automatically for all users when R is starting from Rprofile.site like follow: .First <- function() { source("C:\\R\\orig-websockets.R") } This script is from websockets package distribution. The error is follow: Error in .parse_header(x) :

Somehow I have lost the correct file association for .RData files. They are now associated with a text file editor. When I right click on any .RData file and try to change the association, R is not listed as a choice of program. I browse to c:\Program Files\R\rw2001\bin\Rgui.exe and select that file to open .RData, but Windows does not then place Rgui.exe in the list of programs to use. I can

Dear R-Helpers, I'm fiddling with my .Rprofile in Windows XP & R 2.7.0 Beta. I prefer to manually save my workspace but automatically save my command history via the .Rprofile. That is working fine once I found that "utils::" was required before the loadhistory & savehistory functions. What I would like to do is add a separator line with a date between the histories of each

Dear all. I am trying to install missing (not installed) packages during startup of R through code in Rprofile.site but I miserably failed and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. R is installed to C:Program files but it is not writable for the users, therefore I cannot change Rprofile.site located in root etc directory. I however can put Rprofile.site in users home directory (Documents)
