I have a question about using the edit() function inside an R program that I am running in the standard R console, and on a mac mini with the most recent OS.
I believe you mean R.app.
(1) I was wondering if there is a way to programmatically control the screen location where the edit window appears, and the size of the edit window.
I don't think there's anything in R, but it does remember the size from invocation to invocation (even across sessions), so it must be saving it somewhere. Maybe if you found that spot you could change the value before opening it.
(2) I also notice that the edit window for an array with say 4 columns shows up with a fifth column that is empty and that stretches all the way across to the right edge of the screen. Can I suppress this extra empty column from showing up?
Again, I don't think so: that wouldn't really be compatible with maintaining the size.
(3) Finally, and less importantly to me, is there any way to select the font style and the font size that is used in the edit window?
As far as I can see, no. Duncan Murdoch _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
