[R] copying objects

[Liaw, Andy]

1. Load the first workspace image (e.g., start up R in the directory where
that image is located).

2. Do save(myobject, file="myobject.rda")

3. At this point, you have two choices: a) Quit R and re-start in the
directory where the 2nd workspace is located, or b) clear everything in the
workspace in memory by, e.g., rm(list=ls()), then
setwd("where/the/second/workspace/image/lives") and load(".RData").  The
first is probably safer.

4. Do load("/path/to/the/first/workspace/myobject.rda").

5. Do save.image().

Well, you get the idea...  Check the help pages for these functions.
