Yep, shame on me. But on the other hand, this is a good example of a vague menu
item. I think that instead of "Source R code...", it should be "Load source R code..."
unless it can do more than just loading a source from R file.

No. source() does not only "load", but also parse()s the code!

Also note that load() is completely different from source(). So why do you want to confuse the users?

The first menu item on the `File' menu is called `Source R code' and calls
source(). Did you look through the menus? If not, it would be worth
familiarizing yourself with them.

Hi all!
I looked through the manual and FAQ, and did not find any

information




on how to load functions from files (with .R extension) to run them

in




R GUI under Windows. The only way I know is to create and edit a
function inside GUI. But what if I want to edit it in Emacs (do not
want to use ESS) and then load into GUI?
Any suggestions...

Do you mean ?source?

i.e. save your function in, say, foo.R then use the source() function
to get it in.
