HI R users
I have one question for using DOS command through "system"
I like to delete a file that is located at C:\Program
Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat
I can use a DOS command "del" on Dos prompt like this
C:\Documents and Settings> del "C:\Program Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat"
to delete input.dat file.
When I try to do the same thing on R using "system" command
system('del "C:\Program Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat"')
or
system("del "C:\Program Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat"")
or
system(paste("del", "\"C:\\Program Files\\DOSPROGRAM\\input.dat\"",sep=" "))
All the three system commands did work
Could you help me to figure out ?
Thanks in advance
TM
