All,

I'm currently using R 2.0.1 on a Powerbook G4 with OS X 10.3.8. So far
the only way I've found to set my proxy is by doing Sys.putenv("http_proxy"="<insert proxy url>:<proxy port>) everytime I
start up R.


This works fine, but I'd like to find a solution that doesnt require
manual input everytime I start up R. Does any one have a better way of
accomplishing this?


Thanks,

Drew Balazs

if I understand your problem, you need a way to get some environment variables right which usually are set in .profile or .cshrc.


to this end you need a directory `.MacOSX' in your home dir and there a file `environment.plist'. this can best be edited with the uitility `Property Editor' which is in `/Developer/Applications/Utilities'.

hope this helps
