You are the one who is asking R to find a value for an object named  
"short".

paste(execDir,paste(short,"myfile",sep="_"),sep="\")
                     ^^^^^

Since you are posting in HTML, it is also possible that your mail  
client is going to display this in a proportional font and the the  
"^^^" will not be aligned with the word "short". You should fix the  
settings of you mail client in both these areas.
