Dear all -
Is there anyone know how to let VB or C# know where I install R
automatically(i.e. auto detect R directory)?
On Windows if you run the installer it will record its location in the
registry, under *\Software\R-core\R\, where * is HKLM or HKCU, depending
on what permissions the user had who installed it. But some users don't
run the installer (maybe because someone else installed it on a network,
or they built it themselves) so that isn't completely reliable.
On Unix/Linux we have
$ R RHOME
/usr/lib/R
but same thing doesn't work with Rterm on Windows AFAICS. I wonder if it
shouldn't?
