All,
I had a simple function call I used to open up a dos shell running R under
Win XP:
system("cmd.exe", wait=FALSE, invisible=FALSE).
This does not work with R 2.12.1 - I get a window that briefly flashes open
but then disappears. Does anyone know the method to open a DOS command
window in running R with Win XP? Thank you.
This works on my Vista system:
shell("start cmd")
