Hello list:
I am using R through Geany in Ubuntu. The way i have Geany configured is that
upon invoking the exectute command, Geany does a "R <myscript.R >myscript.out",
thus getting all input from the myscript.R file and redirecting all output to
the myscript.out file.
This is a problem when I want to read, say a numeric value, from the keyboard,
or when i'd like to output something to the console:
num <- scan(stdin(),what=numeric(1),lines=1)
Iin this case R ignores the stdin() connection (which should be a terminal
class).
Is there an easy way around this problem, other than reading my data from a
file or using the tcltk library? All i'd like to do is just read values from
the terminal/console.
Thanks in advance,
jose romero
