Please just use file.path(inputdir, filename).

Apart from being less error-prone, in R 2.7.0 it will be internal and so faster (and in case you wonder how paste could be too slow, it was in some of the package installation/checking computations).

Ops,
paste(inputdir, filename, sep="") should be paste(inputdir, filename, sep="/")

Try this:

name1 <- 'sample-plot'
filename <- sprintf("%s.png", name1)
inputdir <- '/path/to/dir'
paste(inputdir, filename, sep="")

Hi, all

How to format and join strings ?
For example, like following short python examples.

*********
name1 = 'sample-plot'
filename = '%s.png' % name1

inputdir = '/path/to/dir'
os.path.join(inputdir, filename)

**********

Best,
