Details

Objects can be placed into the PBS options manager (see PBSoptions-class).
If the user wishes to change the object associated with an option, issue the command:

setPBSoptions("someOldOption",someNewOption)

If an option comprises a list object, a user can alter specific components of the list by activating the sublist argument:

setPBSoptions(option="myList", value=list(gamma=130), sublist=TRUE)

See example below.
