I use this: # ============================================= my own first-function .First <- function(){ cat("\n>>> R 2.15.2 Rprofile van 13-02-2013 \n\nFunctions added:\t sinc()\t permute()\t combine()\n dice(n)\t countif()\t pplot()\t lplot()\n ln()\t xmatplot()\t ascii()\t chr()\n to.dec()\t to.hex()\tincr()\tdecr()\n as.sci()\tas.eng()\tnprint()\nVectors added: eps, ans, xpoints, xcols\nText:lorem\n\n") cat("Default Packages:",getOption("defaultPackages")) } # ============================================== This gets printed after R's built-in message. As this text states, I also put my own functions in the Rprofile. Works fine.
