Calling R from R and specifying "wait until script is finished"
Hello, Let's say I have 50 R scripts to run. What would be the most efficient way to run them? I thought I could do multiple Rterms in a DOS batch file: Ex: Rterm <1.R> 1.txt Rterm <2.R> 2.txt ... Rterm <50.R> 50.txt However, I'm afraid they will all open at the same time. I know I could pause the batch file with something like: PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 60000

Plot: Distance between tick and tick label on y-axis
Hello, I want to reduce the distance between my ticks and their labels. I managed to do it for the x-axis, but the y-axis puzzles me. Here's an example where there is no space between the x-asix ticks and labels. par(las=1) plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l") axis(2) axis(1,padj=-1.5) #However, axis(2,padj=-1.5)

How would you export a 3-dimensional array to an SQL database?
Hello, How would you export a 3-dimensional array to an SQL database? a<-array(1:24, 2:4) Is there an open source DB that would be more adequate for this type of operation?

Multi-line paste function
Here's my contribution to R. When R interacts with external programs (MySQL, cURL, etc.), it often requires a pasted string that is sent to these programs. For readability reasons, it is often preferable to have complex commands (SQL for example) spread on several lines. However, the normal paste function requires to add additional ' ", ' at the end of each line and another '

Batch mode problem: figure margins too large (code corrected for word wrap)
First of all, I apologize for the triple post, but I did not see that the word wrap on the r-help list site would render my code unusable. So here it is again. Hoping that this time it will work if you cut and paste it in your Rgui. I have a program that works well in Rgui but that does not work in a batch file (Execution halted). Here's the code (it will work on your R, but you need
