Are you trying something like 'qrsh R' ? Then the reason might be a missing tty and R goes to batch-mode, like: bagheera:~>qrsh tty not a tty but: bagheera:~>qrsh Last login: Fri Mar 24 14:02:47 from bagheera.CeBiTe morpheus:~> tty /dev/pts/3 If you supply a command to qrsh, you will not have a terminal. I think there is no switch to force R into interactive mode,like for example for 'bash -i'. I found: http://www.r-project.org/nocvs/mail/r-help/2002/8927.html but have not checked if it still works. Maybe this helps Michael -- ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
