.RData on Mac OS X

I use the Carbon version of R.
Is there any problem with renaming the .RData file e.g. in RData? And is 
there any application on OS X like 'creator type convertor' to make the 
RData file doubleclickable?
Anyway, loading the workspace file .RData via menu works fine!

You can see "invisible" files from the term window using commands like 
"ll"

which version of R for mac are you using ? (Carbon or Darwin)

Hi all,

I recently updated my system from Mac OS 9.1 to OS X (Version 10.1).
How can I use my currently invisible .RData files (created with R 
1.3.1)
on the new system?
Is there a way to make these files visible/readable on Mac OS X?

Hmm. I had no problem whatsoever reading my old OS 9 files, nor some 
Windows
_Rdata files and Linux .Rdata files... What are you trying to do? I 
usually
open files by

load("path/to/my/files/.RData")

It shouldn't be a problem that the file is hidden. You just have to know
where it hides... :-)

But then, I'm running R from the command line under X11 and I'm used to 
the
UNIX way of things. If all those file paths are irritating for you, you
could start up OS 9 and rename your files to something else (without a 
dot
at the beginning), then load by

load(file.choose())

which ought to appeal to you :-)


Hope that helps (if not, write back)
