Hello,
I've been writing a package that allows a script to know its path, and I've been struggling to get it working for 'R.app' on macOS. For 'Rgui' on Windows, I used 'utils::getWindowsHandles' to get the script's path [image: image.png] but it's only on Windows, and even if it wasn't, it seems like 'R.app' only stores the basename in the window handle, so this won't work. For 'RStudio', they provide a function from the environment 'tools:rstudio' that retrieves the script's path, and it seems like there's an equivalent environment 'tools:RGUI' (you can find the source code at this URL: https://github.com/R-macos/Mac-GUI/blob/5f6557eb9e921319586ac974db22cc1f74ba76ff/GUI-tools.R) for 'R.app', but it claims to be for internal use only, and doesn't seem to have a function for retrieving a document's path. So my question, does anyone know of a way to retrieve the path of the currently open document in 'R.app'? Thank you!
