R 4.2.3 OS X Colleagues
Interesting (minor) problem. I have code that I run automatically on two different computers. The code runs from Dropbox so there is not separate code for each computer. In order to identify which computer is running the code, I was hoping to do something like: Sys.getenv(SOMETHING) In a terminal window: echo $PS1 returns the prompt on that particular computer. However, when I attempt to access that from R, I am not successful. For example: In a terminal: echo $PS1 returns: PET\!> In R: Sys.getenv("PS1") returns: "" In R: system("echo $PS1") returns an empty line. A solution to this immediate problem (how to obtain that environment variable in R) or any other clever way to identify a particular computer would be much appreciated.
