Dear List,

I am making a list of all the files in a folder and I want to exclude
one file called "proj.current".  This is the 31st file in a folder.
Currently I use the command:

tdirs<- list.files(pattern="proj.")[-31]

However I would like to exclude it based on its name and not the position.

Hi Daisy,
I think that:

file_list<-list.files(pattern="proj[.]")
tdirs<-file_list[!as.logical(match(file_list,"proj.current",0))]

should do the trick.

Jim
