Close, but does not work generally with RGui 2.1.1 patched, Windows
XP:
> unback(x="n\o")
[1] "no"
I'm also unable to parse "echo", suggested by Ten Harding and Henrik
Bengtsson:
> echo D:/spencerg/statmtds/R/Rnews> tmp.txt
Error: syntax error
> echo cat(gsub("\\\\", "/", readLines("tmp.txt"))) | R --slave
Error: syntax error
Earlier today, Sundar Dorai-Raj helped me with the following:
> (File0 <- file.choose())
[1] "D:\\spencerg\\dataPOWER\\stats\\Tukey\\Boxplot_missing_Tukey2.txt"
> strsplit(File0, "\\\\")
[[1]]
[1] "D:" "spencerg"
[3] "dataPOWER" "stats"
[5] "Tukey" "Boxplot_missing_Tukey2.txt"
> fp. <- strsplit(File0, "\\\\")[[1]]
> (path <- paste(fp.[-length(fp.)], collapse="/"))
[1] "D:/spencerg/dataPOWER/stats/Tukey"
> setwd(path)
> getwd()
[1] "D:/spencerg/dataPOWER/stats/Tukey"
> File <- fp.[length(fp.)]
> File
[1] "Boxplot_missing_Tukey2.txt"
Thanks to everyone who has contributed (or even read) this thread.
I'm confident that a better method exists.
Best Wishes,
