Dear All,
To load a previously saved workspace, one can do the following:
load("/path/to/the/saved/workspace/file")
However, if the path to the saved workspace file is a web address, one
gets the following error:
«Error in readChar(con, 5L, useBytes = TRUE) : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In readChar(con, 5L, useBytes = TRUE) :
cannot open compressed file
'http://phhs80.googlepages.com/workspace20090922', probable reason 'No
such file or directory'»
To circumvent this problem, one can download the saved workspace file
to a local folder with download.file() and the option
mode="wb"
active.
My question is: Should not load() have the same mode option so that
everything could be done only with load() (and not with two
instructions: downaload.file() and load())?
Thanks in advance,
Paul
