idea - like it. I am going to use it in my next simulation. As
the simulation is starting from a vanilla R session, I am going to use
save.image() to save the complete workspace.
Am I right in assuming, that everything in my workspace gets saved,
and if I want to start off from this checkpoint, I have to
1) load all packages again
2) load() the workspace as saved by save.image()
3) and voilá, I can continue?
Or is there anything which will *not* be restored with an approach
like this (assuming a S3 and S4 classes etc.)?
Cheers,
Rainer
