I want to migrate my R workspace databases (e.g., .Rdata) from Windows to Linux. The R help file for "save" says that "[a]ll R platforms use the XDR representation of binary objects in binary save-d files, and these are portable across all R platforms." Is it is simple as that? Copy the Windows .Rdata file to the Linux .ext3 file system? Thanks, Derek Derek N.

Yes. That's how it is supposed to work. (I'd keep the originals just in case, by superstition.)
