Dear all,
I am sure this has been solved before, googling did not help much,.
Warning, I am not great with putty/linux servers
Situation: I have been given access to an R installation on a Linux
server to do some larger number crunching that was killing my machine. I
use putty to connect, and then go R, source("myscript") and all is fine
But this will take potentially days, and I would like to disconnect
What is the best practice? Someone mentionne nohup, but this would
require starting the R script with an argument to R, I think. Is this
doable?
Right, just do
nohup R CMD BATCH myscript.R &
and make sure you save all relevant results into files within myscript.R

Another option was using screen, btu that is not available on the
server.
Any help is welcome.
