hm, it shouldn't really "break" anything, it would just make it possible to change it's behavior. maybe i didn't make myself clear enough: i don't propose to put that formals() call into the default configuration. i just meant that if we fixed the override function to respect the setting of 'save', the above line would be *possible*. you can put it in the options already, but it will have no effect at the moment, because RKWard silently ignores all arguments to q(). > The thing is: when you click on "Save", RKWard opens a dialog to ask *where* > the workspace should be saved. yes, that would still remain the default. so unless you actively change the configuration, RKWard's default behavior wouldn't change at all. but *if* you would like RKWard to close differently, you could do that then. > It's quite different from q() which always save in the working directory > AFAIK. correct. so an open question would be where to save the default workspace in case you've set it to 'save="yes"'. it could for instance be a file in ~/.local/share/rkward/ because the current working directory doesn't make much sense, as you usually don't start RKWard from a particular/changing working directory. an alternative could be RKWard's defined startup working directory. > So, I'm guessing this is why RKWard needs to override how q() works. RKWard overrides some (very few) R core functions. in this case it's likely because it depends on a running R session in the backend, so a user shouldn't be able so simply call q() and crash the application ;-) viele grüße :: m.eik -- dipl. psych. meik michalke institut f"ur experimentelle psychologie abt. f"ur diagnostik und differentielle psychologie heinrich-heine-universit"at d-40204 d"usseldorf
