I need to send a system command to another program from within R but have a small hangup I'm trying to do something like this system("notepad myfile.txt") But, more generally this is happening to multiple files, so I loop over thousands of files. For purposes of an example, my code is something like this, which does not work aa <- 'notepad.exe' fnm <- 'myfile.txt' system("aa fnm") Any suggestions?
