mvbutils (version 2.5.0)

task.home: Organizing R workspaces

Description

Returns file path to current task, or to a file in that task.

Usage

# Often: task.home()
task.home(fname)

Arguments

fname

file name, a character(1)

Details

Without any arguments, task.home returns the path of the current task. With a filename argument, the filename is interpreted as relative to the current task, and its full (non-relative) path is returned. task.home is almost obsolete in R, since the working directory tracks the current task. It is more important in the S+ version of mvbutils.

Examples

task.home( "myfile.c") # probably the same as file.path( getwd(), "myfile.c")
task.home() # probably the same as getwd()
