I was thinking of something like this (note: you must store PassEnv2.r on disk
as a file).
# File PassEnv.r
Sys.setenv(PASSW="mypass")
source("PassEnv2.r")
Sys.unsetenv("PASSW")
# Try again (to show it's removed)
source("PassEnv2.r")
#File PassEnv1.r
passw=Sys.getenv("PASSW")
# Sys.unsetenv("PASSW") ## This would also be possible to clear the enviroment
# Show that is worked
cat("The password is ",passw,"\n")
Again: this is good for your own computer, but should not be used when security
constraints are relevant. The password is visible to everyone for the time of
passenv1.r running.
