Can somebody confirm some unexpected behavior? This is under Windows,
with R 2.11.0 and 2.11.1.
1. Create a trivial test file (I called it test.R) containing:
cat("Success.\n")
2. Load R (Gui or Term) and run:
shell("\"C:\\path\\to\\Rscript.exe\" \"C:\\path\\to\\test.R\"")
In my case, I get various error messages. If the
path\\to\\Rscript.exe has spaces or not, it complains that the first
token (e.g., 'C:\Program') is not a valid command. If the
path\\to\\Rscript.exe has no spaces, it complains that the specified
path is invalid. If C:\\path\\to\\test.R has no spaces, and I remove
the surrounding quotes, things work as expected.
I think this might be related to some earlier e-mail traffic that I
didn't see a satisfactory resolution to.
Cheers,
Oliver
