Don,
That's been my experiences, too.
Hopefully, that helps...
That's why I don't understand why the plot() function accepts the
different directory while the sink() function (here) doesn't.
I showed R rejecting:
sink('stat-summaries/estacada-se-precip.txt')
print(summary(estacada_se_wx))
sink()
while accepting:
pdf('../images/rainfall-estacada-se.pdf')
<snip xyplot() function>
plot(rain_est_se)
dev.off()
Changing the sink() file to
'./stat-summaries/estacada-se-precip.txt'
generates the same error while I regularly use this syntax to copy files or
specify the relative path to an executable file.
Regards,
Rich
