Thank you for your response. In this case, do you think it is possible to write a little program in java which would execute my script and simulate a press on my keyboard ?
If yes, does anybody experiment it and could give me some help or advice ?

I don't think R can handle that (but I may be wrong). On a UNIX platform, this kind of problem could be tackled with the expect command. Your code above suggests you are on a Windows platform. I did a quick google search and it seems that expect is available for windows as part of the CYGWIN suite. And there also seems to be an expect for windows from activestate: http://docs.activestate.com/activetcl/8.5/expect4win/ cu Philipp -- Dr. Philipp Pagel Lehrstuhl für Genomorientierte Bioinformatik Technische Universität München Wissenschaftszentrum Weihenstephan Maximus-von-Imhof-Forum 3 85354 Freising, Germany http://webclu.bio.wzw.tum.de/~pagel/ ______________________________________________ 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. ______________________________________________ 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.
