I mean not use the function setwd() which can only change temporary, when

Sys.setenv(R_USER = '') also doesn't work.

   

Hi Huidong,
There are a few ways. One is to define a .First function in the 
directory where R starts and include the setwd() command in that:


.First-function() {
 setwd(/home/huidong/R)
}

If you start up a new R session, create the .First function and then 
answer y to:


Save workspace image? [y/n/c]:

this function will be run when you start up R. You can add other 
commands to customize the R session, but remember to do so in a fresh 
session, then quit saving the workspace image each time you change .First.


Jim
