Dear Finn and other developers,
I've just looked up /usr/local/bin/ but found no startup script as you
suggested. For OpenSUSE and the like, can you please suggest other possible
locations?
When I search for "rkward" as root, I found the followings,
opt/kde3/bin/rkward
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That one should be what you are looking for.
detlef
opt/kde3/share/apps/
opt/kde3/share/doc/HTML/en/
usr/lib64/R/library/
usr/lib64/R/library/rkward/R/
Thanks in advance.

Hi Horace
Firstly, it may be better to ask help questions on the help list.
To your question. Try getwd() to see where the workspace is located, then go
hunting there for something that looks like a workspace.
When R starts it looks for an existing workspace in the current folder and
perhaps somewhere else (?). Every time you close R it will ask to save the
workspace.
About startup arguments, the startup script is '/usr/local/bin/rkward' (at
least on Ubuntu). You may find the upstart command in there and change it.
I'm also extremely pleased with rkward - I think it could be a major selling
point to universities and others who need a professional and accessible
statistical package.
Best regards
Finn

Finn, yes indeed I meant workspace. The original problem was, a mysterious
workspace is loaded every time I launch Rkward. I don't want that workspace,
but there is no way to tell Rkward not to load it.
I figured out a trick over the weekend, which may be non-standard but it works
just fine for me. Right now, I have an icon created for Rkward on the KDE panel
(ie, the bar at the bottom of the screen, kind of like Windows' Quick Launch)
so that I could launch by clicking the icon. I was able to right-click it and
choose Properties. In Properties, there is a field where I could tell it where
to start. By default, it's left blank. When i specify a folder, the mysterious
workspace is no longer loaded.
Still, a question for you : is there any way to tell Rkward the usual
command-line options, such as --no-restore, --no-site-file, etc.
Thank you for responding.
Horace
PS. So far Rkward has worked out quite well for me. I'm looking forward to the
next release.

Hi Horace
I suppose by 'image' you mean the workspace ?
If that's the case it always has to run in a workspace thus creating one in
memory if you don't choose one yourself.
You may want to go into 'Settings > RKWard Settings > General' and change
'Startup Actions'.
If, on the other hand, you are referring to a graph (ie. bargraph etc.) that
you made in an earlier session this comes from the the .rkward folder in your
home folder (ie. ~/.rkward)
There is an option to reset output in the edit menu (if the output window is
active)
Regards
Finn

Folks,
I'm making progress moving from Windows to Linux and have RKward up and
running. I read somewhere that Rkward's supposed to be the Tinn-R for linux and
Tinn-R has worked out great for me. So naturally I'd like to do the following,
if possible,
1. How to ask Rkward not to load the last saved image. Right now whenever it
starts, it loads an image from some obscure corner of my directory. I can't
quite figure out where it gets that image from. On the command line, I can do
--no-restore. But there seems to be no place to sneak in these command line
options under Rkward. A startup config file hidden somewhere?
2. Customize CTRL-keys. Just out of the box, many menu options do not have a
control key associated with them. Any way to pick my favorite key?
3. I'm used to typing ?command on the R-console and get a HTML help page pops
up. But when I do that, a shockingly large window comes up and complains in
many words about some error which I can't quite figure out what it's saying
(sorry don't have linux in front of me right now).
4. I see there is an 'Output' tab by default. But command results are sent to
R-console, and nothing seems to happen in 'Output'.
I have R 2.7.1 running under KDE on openSUSE 10.3.
TIA.
Horace
