Hi! I'm trying to set up an R library for a common analysis that my lab does. This analysis involves the use of an external bash script, which I would like to encapsulate within the R library. I have been looking at tutorials that detail how to create packages, and many of them mention an experimental "exec" directory where one can store Perl, Java, bash scripts, etc. I was wondering how one might tell an R function to execute a shell script in this directory (I've been thinking along the lines of using system() to execute the script, but I am uncertain what the path to 'exec' would be; my best guess is that the path to 'exec' might be found using the .libPaths() command).
Many thanks, John Pellman [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
