[R] choose.dir() gone?
Hi, I fail to find choose.dir() in my current R install (see below)? Didn't that exist at some point? How to achieve file.choose() equivalent functionality for directories?

Re: [R] choose.dir() gone?
OK. Just checked and choose.file/choose.dir exists in the windows version - apparently not in the linux one ... does anybody have a nice platform-agnostic solution for this?

Maybe 'tk_choose.dir' in the tcltk package will do what you want. --- On Wed, 9/8/10, Johannes Graumann johannes_graum...@web.de wrote: From: Johannes Graumann johannes_graum...@web.de Subject: Re: [R] choose.dir() gone?
