[R] search path question

[Vladimir Eremeev]

Yes, it is.
The original is here
http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/92829.html

However, it requires some modifications.
Here they are. Sorry, I can test it only in Windows.

search.source <- function(file, path=Sys.getenv("PATH"), ...) 
{ 
    for(p in strsplit(path,.Platform$path.sep)[[1]]) { 
        fp <- file.path(p, f) 
        if(file.exists(fp)) return(source(fp, ...)) 
   } 
   stop("file ", sQuote(file), " not found") 
}

Try also looking here.
