Ultimately, I would like to launch R (from another application) with a
script as an argument that creates a plot. I am running on Windows XP with
R 2.4.0. I currently can do this with S-Plus from my application by giving
this command:
C:\Program Files\Insightful\splus62\cmd\splus.exe S_PROJ=C:\myproject
C:\myproject\myscript.ssc
I would like to be able to port my scripts to R and use R to keep costs low
for academics, etc.
The closest that I have been able to come to doing this in R is to create a
.First function:
.First <- function() source("test.R)
The test.R file contains the following lines:
a<-c(1,2,3,4)
b<-c(1,4,9,16)
plot(a,b)
The error on launching rgui.exe with a batch file ("C:\Program
Files\R\R-2.4.0\bin\Rgui.exe " -quiet) is:
Error in eval.with.vis(expr, envir, enclos) :
could not find function "plot"
(any other high level function also does not work)
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
