A few years ago, on a similar mission, I played with changing the SHELL in Gnu Make to R. I was able to get it to work but it was decidedly awkwaRd. I find myself scouting again and coming up with more or less the same candidates (make, scons, rufus, waf, sumatra) and a few newer ones (snakemake, drake) but don't see anything new in the R space, except that, since Jan 2013 "Snakemake can interface with R to specify R code inside rules." which I may give a whirl... I'll chime in again here if/when I do. ~Malcolm > Sean > >> >> >> On Thursday, April 19, 2012 2:27:42 PM UTC-5, Sean Davis wrote: >>> >>> There are numerous tools like scons, make, ruffus, ant, rake, etc. >>> that can be used to build complex pipelines based on task >>> dependencies.
