HI R users
I have one question for using DOS command through system
I like to delete a file that is located at C:\Program
Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat
I can use a DOS command del on Dos prompt like this
C:\Documents and Settings del C:\Program Files\DOSPROGRAM\input.dat
to delete input.dat file.
Why don't you use 'unlink':
unlink('c:/Program Files/DOSPROGRAM/input.dat')
If you really want to use 'del', then you have to invoke the command
processor:
system('cmd /c del c:\\Program Files\\DOSPROGRAM\\input.dat')
