This is a utility function to run scripts, usually those associated
with the book described below.
Usage
sm.script(name, path)
Arguments
name
the name of the file containing the code; a .q suffix will be appended
to the name. If name is missing, a list of the scripts associated to
the sm library will be displayed.
path
the name of the path where to look for the script. If path is missing,
it is assumed to be the appropriate location for the scripts of the sm
library.
Details
This utility allows the illustrations of the reference below to be reproduced
easily, since each of them has an associated script. The display of the
script file itself is controlled by the setting of the logical variable
show.script in sm.options. This is set to TRUE by default.
