I've written a simple script that does some surveillance analysis on daily counts of walk-in clinic visits, for our county health department. (Actually, Michael Hohle's surveillance package does all the work; I just customized it a little to work with the way our data are recorded.) The output consists of a graph and a little table.
My colleague will run it once in a while, on continuously updated data. She knows nothing about R, at least not yet. I want to make it as simple as possible. Rather than have her open R and type source("filename"), I want to be able to put an icon on her WinXP desktop, so that when she double-clicks it, R will open, run the script, and up pops the graph. I've been trying to learn about R CMD BATCH, playing with the dialogue boxes for WinXP desktop shortcuts, etc, but no luck so far. I guess I don't know enough about Windows. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks. --Chris Ryan ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
