NOTE: WinXP, R2.2.0 All, a while back I posted a question about using relative filereferencing. The responses have allowed me to successfully set up the following directory structure: ...\data\raw ...\data\derived ...\prog ...\lst ...\log In the \prog directory I have put an RGui.exe shortcut and "pointed it" at \prog as the "Start In" location. In the same

Hello everyone, I had a few questions that I have not been able to figure out despite a lot of reading. 1) Adding a title to a multiplot figure: If I plot multiple plots with >par(mfrow=c(2,6)) how do I add an overall title to the figure, not the individual plots? 2) Saving histories on the fly: Is there a .Rhistory equivalent to >save.image() ? I would like to be able to save the

# # r-bugs@r-project.org # ###################################################### Because I work in different directories, but always want to save my .Rhistory in the same place, I have changed the system function savehistory to this: function (file = "D:/R50/.Rhistory") invisible(.Internal(savehistory(file))) When I use q() to quit R, and it asks me whether I want to

Dear R users, I am having a minor but annoying issue with R.app. It doesn't retain the history information from the previous sessions. By "history," I mean a record of commands/functions entered into R rather than the list of objects--that is properly recorded in the .Rdata file as well as in a workspace file I save separately. System details: R version 2.9.0 R.app GUI 1.28 Mac OS

When I close R and answer yes to save workspace, R automatically loads it and apparently also the command history at start up. I would like to know where R stores this information. I know that I can save .RData and .Rhistory files, but I would like to know how(where) R stores this information automatically. I have not found any .RData or .Rhistory files associated with start up. I am running

If you start Rterm/Rgui from the cmd (NT4.4) command line, the .Rhistory and .RData files are created/used in the current directory. I think, R should honor HOME or even the USERPROFILE variable.

I have an environment variable `$R_HISTFILE` pointing to `/home/my.username/.RHistory` and the following code in my `.Rprofile` in my home directory: .Last <- function() { if (!any(commandArgs()=='--no-readline') && interactive()){ require(utils) try(savehistory(Sys.getenv("R_HISTFILE"))) } }

Thanks-- as Duncan Murdoch also noted, R_HISTFILE can be used to solve my problem, as below. BTW it's not easy to find out about R_HISTFILE in the help system or manuals, though, unless you already know it exists-- it only seems to be described under startup options, not things to do with history. However, Duncan's reply did hint at an inconsistency, in that savehistory() defaults to

A quick summary. The reported problem appears to be with (some) previous histories. If you find that neither up arrow nor ctrl-P work in the Rgui console, please delete .Rhistory and try again. We don't know the exact cause, and nothing I can think of can reproduce this. I have no problem taking histories made with rw1001 and reading them in rw1010 and vice versa. If the .Rhistory is really

Hi all, I've ecountered a problem in the last few days with my .Rhistory file not being able to be updated when I quit an R session because its file attributes under Windows have been set as "Hidden". Recently, I put the following line in my global Rprofile file:- history(max.show=Inf) so that I automatically open the entire history file for a project when I begin a session, but I

Dear R users, I have a .RData which contains .Last object as follows: .Last <- function () { savehistory(file = ".Rhistory") } In this directory, if I issue the following command Rterm --save < mycmds.q to execute commands in mycmds.q and to save results in .RData, I got the following error message towards the end of the execution: Error in savehistory(file) :

Hi, I have R installed under a Mandrake linux system and I don't have shell utilities any more under my R console such as completion when writing a file path, back and forth in the history, bindkeys... Moreover when I quit R by saving, no .Rhistory file is created while the .Rdata is. I don't get how this work, I thought it was based on the user unix shell but it does not seem. Any

dear members, I am a stock trader. I am using R for my research. I want to service my laptop, wherein resides all my R code, which, for obvious reasons, has to be secured. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate. I cannot encrypt the R data by Bitdefender, as it encrypts the entire drive. I anyway need to give the key when the system, if at all, gets locked when servicing. My

I started my laptop, opened a shell and get this error message: R : Copyright 2005, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.2.1 (2005-12-20 r36812) ISBN 3-900051-07-0 lines deleted Error in fun(...) : couldn't find function "assignInNamespace" Error: .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'Matrix' Fatal error: unable to restore saved data in .RData

With the current version (rw1070), every time I start R it loads a whole bunch of packages, many of which I do not need in a typical session: > search() [1] ".GlobalEnv" "package:methods" "package:ctest" "package:mva" [5] "package:modreg" "package:nls" "package:ts" "Autoloads" [9]

Hi, It seems simple but I could not find the solution on the R site. I can't save properly ".RData" and ".Rhistory" in Windows 7 folders. I get files with no extension.

Full_Name: Russell Senior Version: 0.64.0 OS: linux-2.2.x Submission from: (NULL) (198.107.133.11) It appears that the GNU readline history size is limited to 50 entries. This is apparently occurring because R is not bothering to override the readline default value (from readline-4.0): ./history.c:59:#define DEFAULT_HISTORY_GROW_SIZE 50 It appears that it ought to be possible to override

Another question: Is it possible to move R objects from one directory to another without copying the whole .RData and .Rhistory files?
