Do it in a two step process since you want the negation.
> x <- c('file1.xyz', 'file2.xml', 'file3.abc')
> x[-grep("xml$", x)]
[1] "file1.xyz" "file3.abc"

Greetings R list,
I am stuck on a simple syntax problem. I want to list all files in a directory,
excluding files of a certain type. I have tried pattern matching as follows:
a <- list.files(data, full.name = TRUE, pattern != ".xml") # exclude all .xml
files
The warning returns that
2 matches
