Rwin configuration {base} | R Documentation |
The file Rconsole
configures the R GUI console in this
Windows port. The file Rdevga
configures the graphics devices
windows
, win.graph
, win.metafile
and win.print
.
There are system copies of these files in R\_HOME\etc
. Users
can have personal copies of the files: these are looked for in the
location given by the environment variable R\_USER
. The system
files are read only if a corresponding personal file is not found.
If the environment variable R\_USER
is not set, the R system
sets it to HOME
if that is set (stripping any trailing
slash), otherwise to HOMEDIR:HOMEPATH
is HOMEDIR
is set
otherwise to the working directory.
Each of the files contains details in comments of how to set the values.
At the time of writing Rdevga
configured the mapping of font
numbers to fonts, and Rconsole
configured the appearance
(single or multiple document interface, toolbar, statusbar on MDI),
size and colours of the GUI console, and whether resizing the
console sets options("width")
.
