detecting operating system in R (e.g. for adaptive .Rprofile files) -
i wondering how automatically detect operating system in r, example place things in .rprofile.
i'm not sure using sys.info() since page says not implemented on r platforms; maybe use .platform instead? ?.platform has lot of useful information, since:
‘.platform’ list details of platform under r built. provides means write os-portable r code.
it seems packages included r use .platform much more sys.info.
josh: /c/r/r-2.12.0-src/src/library > grep ".platform" */r/* | wc -l 144 josh: /c/r/r-2.12.0-src/src/library > grep ".platform\$os.type" */r/* | wc -l 99 josh: /c/r/r-2.12.0-src/src/library > grep "sys.info" */r/* | wc -l 4
