I dont have any experience with Gwidgets. However, one alternative would be to use tcltk.
See http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/FileOpenSave.html for an example. This has worked fine for me.

This is probably a very easy problem, however I wasn't able to find any solution in the documentation and examples of gWidgets. I want to open a file selection dialog (gfile()) and if the user selects an .Rdata file, it should be loaded. So I wrote the following function that is executed when someone clicks an "load RData file" button: fOpen= function(h,...) { filepath <- as.character(gfile(filter = list("R files" = list(patterns = c("*.Rdata"))))) load(file=filepath) } "filepath" is the correct path to the RData file that should be loaded. However, the file does not get loaded into the workspace. What elementary thing am I missing here? Thank you very much for your help in advance, Bernhard _______________________________________________ R-SIG-GUI mailing list R-SIG-GUI@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-gui _______________________________________________ R-SIG-GUI mailing list R-SIG-GUI@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-gui
