Hi,
I find that a typical workflow for me looks something like this:
1) import some data from files
2) mess around with the data for a while
3) mess around with plotting for a while
4) get a plot or analysis that looks good
5) go back through my history to make a list of the shortest command

Hi, I'm using windows xp and R 2.8.0 - I wonder what is the command to
put in a script that has the same effect as when in a plot you choose
menu "History" and "Recording".
Best wishes

JGR's "Copy Commands" command works well for me (even if it is both
fascinating and embarrassing how little is sometimes left over). It
retains only commands that worked, so it is still not the minimum
possible.

I meant 5a 5b 5c. Multiple-line commands are handled correctly.
What is is doing is looking for "> " and " +" prompts. Anything else
is removed.
Here is a selection from the *R* buffer and the result after cleaning.
It includes an example of par().

If you want to control an already open graphics device you will need

Kathy.
A suggestion. As you gather your information about the history, I suggest you
put fingers to keyboard and write down the history. You could start with the
material Douglas just sent to you. Perhaps we can convince the R folks to place
the history on the CRAN website - perhaps in WIKI form
For those of you who want to learn more about the history of the R
project: There will be an invited lecture by John Fox and Kurt Hornik at
this year's useR! conference in Dortmund in August (...unfortunately a bit
too late for Kathy) about "The Past, Present, and Future of the R Project"

Thanks to all who responded so thoughtfully. I would like to summarize
briefly the observations and opinions so far with some of my own
interpretations and thoughts. John Fox is working on a much deeper
history scheduled for August, and his three factors are a good starting
point.

Hi, Kathy, John, et al.:
Has there been an answer to the question of why R has been much
more successful than Octave?
In this regard, can anyone provide a price comparison of student
versions for S-Plus and Matlab during R's gestation period, 10-15 years
ago? I had the impressio

I believe this is the first mention of pricing that I've seen. The
accommodation and consideration of contributed packages has been
addressed to some degree.
Several additional points have been made about the comparison of R to

The windows port of R has been very good for a long time. I know some
people who even think that the current windows port is better than the
Linux version. Thanks to those who have made the windows port
available and who continue to maintain it. I now use both MS Windows
and Linux (Fedora) and wo

You might find some relevant reading in volume 13 of the Journal of

Some of the papers have a bit of discussion on why R has become more
