Hi all -- I am working on 64-bit Windows XP. I'm not a very technical person when it comes to the command line stuff, so please forgive me if this is a stupid question.
I have a bunch of HDF files, and I want to dump a single PM25 data layer from each file to .txt by invoking ncdump.exe from system(). Here's a sample command string: "C:/ncdump -v PM25 C:/01aug2010.hdf > C:/01aug2010.txt" This works perfectly in Python, but does not actually generate the .txt file in R when: system(command) It does show the output on the console, if flagged to do so, and I can capture the output to an R object with intern = T. I assume there is some problem with the way I have specified how to get the output to the text file (i.e. the ">"), but experimentation with other options has not gone well. Can anyone advise? Thanks!
