I'd like to invoke R using a fifo for input. The following unix commands gets me almost completely there:
mkfifo R.fifo R --no-save <R.fifo >R.out in a separate window, I would enter the command eg printf "capabilities()" >R.fifo the expected output goes into R.out; but the process stops. How to I make R persist so I can send multiple commands to the fifo? Also, would this be possible in windows? // George -- George Georgalis, information system scientist <IXOYE>< ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
