Thank you The return before clicking anywhere else solved that problem, clever
So I trash all invisible .Rhistory and .Rdata files Then made a new folder (called R_History_Data) and aim Preferences at this folder (using the return) Then run R.app and yes, I have one .Rhistory and one .Rdata in that folder But then I change the working directory and do some stuff Then quit and save working directory And now I have two of each invisible files, one in R_History_Data and one in the working directory folder So it still appears as I move from directory to directory I will leave invisible .Rhistory and .Rdata files all over Is it possible to have Rhistory and Rdata always written to the R_History_Data folder? > From: Rob Goedman <robjgoed...@me.com> > Date: Tue, 05 May 2009 07:13:12 -0700 > To: Loren Engrav <eng...@u.washington.edu> > Cc: "r-sig-mac@stat.math.ethz.ch" <r-sig-mac@stat.math.ethz.ch> > Subject: Re: [R-SIG-Mac] R.app > > Loren, > > On May 4, 2009, at 8:41 PM, Loren Engrav wrote: > >> Using 10.5.5 and R.app 2.8.0 and MBP and MP >> >> All seems to work fine but I have .Rhistory and .Rdata invisible >> files all >> over my hard drive >> Can I have one of each in a known place?
