Change working directory
In R for Macintosh, there is a Preferences setting that will do this. You can also drag and drop a file onto the R icon and I believe it will change the working directory to the directory that contains the file. On unix-like systems, using the command line, it's whatever directory you start R in. I don't use R on Windows, so I don't know there, but I imagine there may be a preferences setting, or perhaps the drag and drop method works. Or maybe create a shortcut in the directory you want to be the working directory? -Don

Hello, I am using setwd() to change the working directory but I have to enter it everytime I open R, is there a way to set this permanently as a working directory?
