The gsubfn package has string interpolation somewhat like perl. Preface a function call with fn$ and then back ticks and $ are interpolated. library(gsubfn) fn$identity("pi is $pi") library(sqldf) fn$sqldf("select * from BOD where Time > $pi") fn$stop("class is `class(pi)`") ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
