Dear List-Members,

does anyone know a simple way to automatically install all R packages on a unix system to the default library path? Not from inside R, it should rather work as a shell script - job at startup.

Something like R cmd install -l pkgs ### where pkgs should mean all packages (is there an option to control overwriting?)

Thanks a lot,

N. Boehme

Hi,

To get a lot of packages (not all), install the "ctv" package (Cran Task Views) and run:

library(ctv)
install.views(available.views())

This will install all the packages that are part of a Cran Task View, a sizeable amount.

A question: why would you want to install all R pacakges. It is not very likely that you are going to use them all.

cheers,
Paul
