Yes, one way is to use commandArgs in the R script. So say your R script is as follows
n <- as.character(commandArgs()[3]) fn <- as.character(commandArgs()[4]) mat <- matrix( rnorm( n*n ), nc=n ) write.table( mat, filenames=fn, sep="\t", quote=FALSE ) Then you execute the commands from command line as R --no-save < script 100 out.txt This will run the R commands and output them to "out.txt". johan Faux wrote: > I would like R CMD build to run some R code which does some stuff and save > the result as a file in /inst/docs folder. > Is there any way of doing this. > > Thank you. > Johan > > > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > We won't tell.
