workspace question

All,

When starting R, how does one prevent the loading the previous 
workspace which was saved?  I'd like to start a new project
and save the new image in a different directory, but I'd like to 
partition this from the old project.  Does there exist a better
way than just deleting the files associated w/ the old project
manually?  I looked in the Intro to R manual and searched for 
"workspace" and didn't see anything on this aspect.

Kind regards,
Dave

ps - please reply directly to afshar at miami.edu

Hi Dave,
Look at "save" in Help. R automatically loads the workspace called  
".Rdata" at the beginning of a session. You could rename workspace,  
and load or save whatever you like.
