Re: [R] Question about .Rhistory in Windows

2021-06-22 Thread PIKAL Petr
Hallo

I increased number of lines which .Rhistory stores before the lines start to
be overwritten.
You can do this by changing number in
Sys.setenv(R_HISTSIZE = 2000)
in Rprofile.site located in etc folder of your installation.

And from time to time I rename Rhistory to something like "210621.r"

Rhistory is plain text file so it can be viewed in any suitable text editor.

Cheers
Petr

[R] Question about .Rhistory in Windows

2021-06-21 Thread Gabriel Toro
I am using version 3.6.3 on Windows. For some reason, the .Rhistory file gets 
over-written once in a while. I would like to avoid this so I have a complete 
history over multiple R sessions. Under what conditions can the .Rhistory file 
be over-written?  Is there a way to keep this file from being over-written? Any 
change in the startup settings?

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel
