You can do this with my Rdsm package on CRAN. Set up 2 Rdsm clients, which I'll call A and B. Use client A as you main R session, where you do most of your work, but start your asynchronous process in B, writing to memory shared by A and B. The code at B would look like: run task B, writing results to shared variable X[1] when done The code at A would look like: do various unrelated tasks while (X[1] == 0) ; use X[1] Norm Matloff ______________________________________________ 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.
