Is there a limit on the number of characters in an invocation like R CMD BATCH --opt1=val1 --opt2=val2 ... --save-to=C:\very\long\string ..\R\script.R
? I am running R 2.0.1 on Windows XP, and when running a long BATCH command (about 400--500 characters) the last option gets mangled, as can be seen from a warning in script.Rout that looks like this: WARNING: unknown option +--save-to=C:\very\long\str..\R\script.Rout Note that "string" is truncated to "str" _and_ concatenated with the implicit batch output file "..\R\script.Rout". (The "unknown option" warning is expected; I am just using commandArgs() within the script to pick out the arguments.) I have tried specifying --args before the options, with the same result, except that the truncation appears earlier. Thanks in advance for any help!
