i use the GUI version of R on OS X. I launch it by double-clicking on the R icon. The process always starts in my home directory which means that the only .RData file that is ever read in is the one in my home directory. I

directories, but I can't figure out how to do this.

A workaround is to use the shell version of R and always change to the directory containing my saved session before launching, but I prefer to use
the GUI version.

Is there a command to tell R to load a session from a particular location?
How do other people with Macs do this?

?load

(It's not Mac-specific.)



If you want to clean out the workspace you could use:

rm( ls() )

That won't do anything. Instead, try:

rm(list = ls())



You can also associate file types with your R.app.
