<DIV></DIV>Hi Horace<BR>Firstly, it may be better to ask help questions on the
help list.<BR>To your question. Try getwd() to see where the workspace is
located, then go hunting there for something that looks like a
workspace.<BR>When R starts it looks for an existing workspace in the current
folder and perhaps somewhere else (?). Every time you close R it will ask to
save the workspace. <BR><BR>About startup arguments, the startup script is
'/usr/local/bin/rkward' (at least on Ubuntu). You may find the upstart command
in there and change it.<BR><BR>I'm also extremely pleased with rkward - I think
it could be a major selling point to universities and others who need a
professional and accessible statistical package.<BR><BR>Best
regards<BR>Finn<BR><BR>On 2008-11-10 18:57, Horace Tso wrote:
