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 -- Andrew Beckerman University of Sheffield [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
