In the editor using the right mouse click you will find 2 copy possibilities. The Copy is copying as is including the + character and it becomes a multi line command. Remove all + characters and it becomes a single line command. The second one is easier: Copy Command. Using this feature Rbase will transfer the multi line command into a single line command automatically. Tony From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Sent: vrijdag 29 april 2016 7:48 To: RBASE-L Subject: [RBASE-L] - Pasting a Multi-line command at the R> My first post to this group. Newbie to Rbase X 32bit from the cozy DOS world, but I have a question about the most basic functionality (or lack). How does one cut & paste a multi-line command to the R> prompt to test the command (or execute it one-off)? I can paste the command, but every command I've tried throws an error. And then command history corrupts the formatting of the pasted command on recall. I first found this copying some help screen examples. But even using something a simple as Show + Variables results in a spurious error (sometimes Invalid parameter, usually syntax error). And this type of mess when recalled from history: Show +Variables I've seen that syntax executed in a command file works fine, but when the identical syntax is pasted, it does not work with the errors noted above. Testing at the R> is an essential function. But does it work? How? Thanks for any help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBASE-L" group.
