Hi, I would like to start R by default with '--no-restore-history --no-save' to avoid that .RData files are written. I put "alias R=R --no-restore-history --no-save" in virtually all relevant system/dot files, like ~/.bash_profile and ~/.profile (even ~/.bashrc), but still, .RData files are written (yes, I did fresh logins...)... When I define the alias in the shell before executing R, it works, so the question seems to be *where* (i.e., in which file) to define the alias? This seems to be a 'Mac/terminal question' not related to R, but I have working aliases in ~/.bashrc, so why I isn't R called with the two optional arguments? Has anyone experienced something similar? I even found posts were this procedure is recommended (with the alias defined in ~/.bash_profile). Hmmm...
