similar to: Opening a script with the R editor via file association (on Windows)

I read the posting about opening .R files in windows with the Rgui and was wondering if anything has changed for R-2.8.1 and Windows Vista? I have not yet been able to get the files to open in the Rgui, the association works enough to open R but that is about it. Thanks for the input. -Peter DeWitt -- Peter DeWitt PhD Candidate Department of Statistics Colorado State University "For

Dear R users / devs, There's been requests in the past for a text editor built into the Rgui for Windows, from which code can be submitted to the R console. Something along the lines of the script editor in S-Plus. Currently Rgui can only display a file read-only in a pager. As far as I can tell there's been little motivation to implement an editor, as most developers use (the

*What I want to do: *Create a windows shortcut that will start the R gui **and** simultaneously source a file *What I have already tried: *This almost works, but it's not the interactive R GUI: R --no-save --sdi -file="C:\SomePath\example.R" These open the R GUI, but doesn't recognize -f --f --file -file RGUI --no-save --sdi -file="C:\SomePath\example.R"

Hello list Is there a way of identifying from within R whether a script has been source(d) from Rgui.exe or via Rscript.exe in batch mode? For the code I have I use the commandArgs() function to pick up command line args when running in batch mode via Rscript.exe However I like to get the code working manually first using source("MyRCode.r") I'd like to be able to put something at

When using the File/Open Script.. dialogue on Windows, the list of filters offered is R files (*.R) S files (*.q,*.ssc,*.S) All files (*.*) I wish that an additional filter be offered as Sweave files (*.Rnw,*.Snw) I find that the Rgui script editor is adequate for most of my R development and tend to edit *.Rnw files there. _ platform

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

I am trying to port some C code from S-Plus (7.0.6) to R (2.4.0) under Windows XP SP2. I use Visual C++ 6.0 to build my library for S-Plus, so I'd like to stick with that set up, if possible. According to the README.packages file, I need the file R.exp (containing functions exported from R.dll, I'm guessing) to build an R package with VC++. >From what I've read in the archives of

Dear R users: Today (December 18th) I downloaded R1.2.0 for Windows from ftp://ftp.stat.unipd.it/users/guido/RWin and then invoked its Rgui.exe to change its gui configuration. After I set new values in Rgui configuration Editor frame and saved the set of new parameters as a "Rconsole" file, then I re-started Rgui and R issued an error message concerning the buffer-line-value in the

Hi, I'd like to spawn of a new R process from within R using system(), e.g. system("R -f myScript.R"). However, just specifying "R" as in that example is not guaranteed to work, because "R" may not be on the OS's search path. What is the best way, from within a running R, to infer the command (basename or full path) for launching R in way that it works on

Dear all, Can anyone please tell me when the script editor was introduced in the Rgui on windows? (And/or where to look for a listing of changes throughout history). Best regards S?ren

If there is a helpfile open (f.e ?glm) and it is the top window, then an exception error occurs (closing RGUI) when I hit the open file button. If the helpfile is not the top window (of the RGUI) I am able to open a new script without any error. The RGUI is not closing complete there is a blank screen left which I have to close with the X Button or Taskmanager Windows XP Home - German Version

Dear moderators, when I installed the latest version of R (R2.10.1) under Microsoft Vista (service pack 2), I ran into problems associating Rgui.exe with .RData files. On doubleckicking such files in explorer, they open in a Rterm window. Trying to associate Rgui.exe with the Rdata files via control panel / default programs does not work - Rgui is not added to the list of recommended programs. I

Hi, I need to be able to run an R script by double-clicking the file name in Windows. I've tried associating the .r extension with the different R .exe's in /bin but none seems to work. Some open R then close right away, and Rgui.exe gives the message ARGUMENT "/my/file.r" __ignored__ before opening a new, blank session. I've tried Google and looking in the R for

Hi R-helpers, I must use WinXP at work, and I'm missing a particular feature that's available in R on my Mac at home... In WinXP I would like to launch R by dragging and releasing a text file on top of the R shortcut on my desktop. Then, I would like the working directory to be automatically set to the location of that text file. That's what works in MacOS, but I can't figure

I am looking for advice on an editor to use with R (windows) that has an autosave feature. I typically write scripts using the RGui (and tried TinnR yesterday) but I am having continuing problems with BSODs (non R related) and have in the past have had issues with R crashes and would really like a system that does not require me to remember to hit the save button on my script every 10 minutes so

Dear R-users, I have written a small application (in visual basic) that automatically generate some R scripts. I would like to execute these scripts when my application is being closed. My problem is that I don't know how to pass the 'source(c:/.../myscript.r)' instruction when I programmatically start RGui. Tinn-R is capable of doing such things, so I guess there must be a way
