Open standard Windows tools quickly

Many standard Windows tools can be opened from the Run dialogue, but this starts them in the standard locations, when R users may want them opened or saved in the current working directory.

Usage

Notepad(file = "")

Arguments

file

A character string for the file to be opened; it will be created if it does not yet exist.

Value

NULL. The functions are for their external effects only. Control is still available in the R console/terminal.

Details

If a file specified does not yet exist in the current folder, the standard notepad editor asks the user if a new file is wanted.
