[R] An easy question on package building/installation

[jpm miao]

Hi,

   I try to build a package myself on RStudio. The command
"package.skeleton" is successfully run, but the command "build" is not. In
my case, the username and the package name are both "abcd".

   Error message:

> R CMD build abcd

Error: unexpected symbol in "R CMD"

>

    Could someone help me to write a correct "build" command?

    Thanks! Full log:


> setwd("D:/0B/R/pkg-abcd")

> setwd("D:/0B/R/pkg-abcd")

> package.skeleton(name="abcd")
