[csvirtual at gmx.de]

Thanks John,

It works. (just saved source and clicked "Source" to run it, without
debug(?)).
Best
Chris

Just type the commands in the Source window of RStudioo, debug,  save as a
.r file and source it.  

I don't see any particular reason to have three scripts once everything is
running correctly but you may find it useful.
