Dear R Gurus:
I would like to set the number of commands in the history file as 50
rather than 25.
It is neither of those. That is the default value of max.show, not of the
size of the file.
I would do this in the .First function.
How do I set this, please? I tried
history(max=50)
and it prints what it has.
Yes, but that is the number shown, not the number saved.
You failed to follow the posting guide and tell us *anything* about your
OS etc. But probably ?history tells you how to set the size of the
history file via environment variable R_HISTSIZE.
I just want to set the size in .First.
Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,
Edna
