Apologies for list noise. I just found a subtle typo so the command was different from what it appeared to be in the actual use-case. dir() seems to be working OK once that was fixed.
JN -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: listing all files in a directory ending in ".xxx" in a script Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2018 19:33:25 -0500 From: J C Nash <profjcn...@gmail.com> To: r-help <r-help@R-project.org> When in a console (I was in Rstudio) I can run dir("../provenance-of-rootfinding/", pattern="\\.Rmd") to list all Rmd files in the specified directory. However, when I try to run this in a script under Rscript --vanilla I don't get the files to list. Am I missing something obvious that I should know about?
