Dear listers
I am using a system() call to my machine (OSX 10.8, R 3.0.1. 32GB memory
available):
system(paste("awk 'NR==2'", file.genepop), intern = TRUE)
and when processing big files, getting numerous helpful error messages
system(paste("awk 'NR==2'", file.genepop), intern = TRUE, ... :
line 1 may be truncated in call to system(, intern = TRUE)
I understand what is happening, and can see the truncations, but is there any
way to prevent the truncation? Or is there a read-limit in system() [I can't
see anything in the help file⦠but I am probably missing something]?
Many thanks
Andrew
