Dear Jason, Thank you very much, the first problem is solved. It was a corrupted file. After downloading a new version rterm works!
The second question: I was trying to set the working directory while I'm calling a script with Rterm.exe from the command line. Something like c:\Program Files\R\rw1090\bin\rterm.exe --vanilla "workingdir=c:/data/" <test.r --args "Arg1" "Arg2" Thank's again Johannes -----Original Message----- From: Jason Turner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 May 2004 12:15 To: Johannes SCHNITZLER Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [R] Rterm > With R1090 > > C:\Program Files\R\rw1090\bin\rterm.exe --vanilla <test.r --args "Arg1" > "Arg2" > > There is the error message: Rterm.exe is not a valid Win32 application > > I tried on Windows 2000 and XP > > I couldn't find out what to change. Weird. Did you install in C:\Program Files\R\rw1090\? On my XP machine, it did, and rterm is valid. The above works from a command prompt, provided I wrap the executable path and name in quotes. Failing that, is it a corrupt binary install? Here's the md5 of my (working) R-1.9.0, downloaded from CRAN (NOT the patched version, and not built by me) C:\Program Files\R\rw1090\bin> md5sum.exe Rterm.exe 2565cd848bbd86b964624a0490352da2 *Rterm.exe > I would like to set the working directory as well, in the same command, > when calling an r script with rterm.exe from the command line. > > Is there a way to do this? Inside R: setwd("your/path/here") With the usual warning about using "/" slashes, or "\\" slashes (doubled). I just stick with "/".
