On Windows, this could be done with rcom and Excel.
rcom can use Excel as a server and put matrices into Excel ranges.
The code you run in R could have a statement resending matrices so the
current
version is displayed.
I could set up more conveniently what yo want if RGui had a way
of automatically running a function each time code is run from the
command line.
So here is a question to the masters:
Can I have code automatically run each time some code
is run from the command line?
This is something I have already asked. It seems this is not possible
currently. Something like ?addTaskCallback, but registering an R
function that is to be called *before* a top-level task is run would be
wonderful (???addTaskStart).

P.S.: this would solve also another problem we have for some GUIs: to
know if R is busy processing commands issued at the command line or not
(just set a busy flag to TRUE with a function registered with
"addTaskStart", and set it to FALSE with a function registered with
addTaskCallback). Of course, a R function that provides this information
more directly would be much, much better.

Hi,
I would like to view matrices I am working with in a clean, easy to read,
separate window.
A friend showed me how to do something like I want with edit(). I can
view
the matrix in the 'R Data Editor':
For a sample matrix:
mat=matrix(1:15,ncol=3)
mat
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 1 6 11
[2,] 2 7 12
[3,] 3 8 13
[4,] 4 9 14
[5,] 5 10 15
look=function(x) invisible(edit(x))
look(mat)
That opens the 'R Data Editor' with mat loaded.
But I am not able to do any other actions in R while this 'R Data
Editor' is
open. I want to keep this open while
I do other work.
Is there a way to view my data in something like the 'R Data Editor' that
still allows me to do work at the same time?
I am looking for something other than str(), head(), and tail() which
just
allow me a quick peak at the object. I do not
want to edit the object in the table, but be able to watch the object
change
while I run anything that would manipulate it.
Thank you for your help.
Best,
