I get different behavior on Linux: system("mkdir newdir") dir("newdir", all.files = TRUE, recursive = TRUE) ## R hangs ## After hitting Ctrl-C There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50) > dir("newdir", all.files = TRUE, recursive = TRUE) character(0) Warning message: list.files: newdir is not a readable directory
After hitting Ctrl-C the first time, dir() doesn't hang but it produces the warning. > version _ platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os linux-gnu system i686, linux-gnu status major 1 minor 9.1 year 2004 month 06 day 21 language R -roger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >>list.files("c:/tmp", all.files = TRUE, recursive = TRUE) > > Error in list.files("c:/tmp", all.files = TRUE, recursive = TRUE) : > directory/folder path name too long > > >>version > > _ > platform i386-pc-mingw32 > arch i386 > os mingw32 > system i386, mingw32 > status > major 1 > minor 9.1 > year 2004 > month 06 > day 21 > language R > > > Best > > > Jens Oehlschlägel > > ______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel > ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
