Bill:
Success, almost there:

writeLines(readLines("C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile.site")) 
options(prompt="R> ")
set.seed(12345)
rm(list=ls())

>


Yet, still not affecting the launch, as "R>" is not there.
Any suggestions, please. "So close, yet far away, ... " - Carly Simon

Can I please call you, but I am getting a little lost, and losing your

I should haved added full.names=TRUE to the dir() call.  I you add
that I'd expect that you would see ".../etc/Rprofile.site".  What do
you see when you do

       writeLines(readLines(".../etc/Rprofile.site")

and
       source(echo=TRUE, ".../etc/Rprofile.site")

(replace the ellipsis by whatever dir(full.names=TRUE,...) showed).

Here's what I got:

dir(c(".", Sys.getenv("HOME"), R.home("etc")), pattern="Rprofile") [1]

Use the R command
     dir(c(".", Sys.getenv("HOME"), R.home("etc")), pattern="Rprofile")
to see if there are any file names with the unwanted ".txt" and use
file.rename() to fix them up.

I believe someone already mentioned it, but notepad makes it hard to
save a file without the ".txt" extension to its name.  R does not do
anything with .Rprofile.txt, only .Rprofile, so you must figure out a
way to work around notepad's mangling of the file name.

I cannot add to the instructions that you have already been given
regarding .Rprofile.

But what code did you use in your .Rprofile to set the prompt? The
posting guide explicitly requests that you provide your code,
although
maybe you already did earlier in this extensive thread.

?options

is how it can be set. Did you do this?

When I launch Rstudio the effects of the Rprofile do not show, e.g.,
I
want the prompt to be "R> " instead of the default "> ". The former
doesn't
show.
