Hi, I was following this thread and would like to ask is there any way to save and open a .RData file after using some Password. What I mean to say, how to make my workplace password-protected?
Also would like to know how same can be done for .R file.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks and regards,

Depends what you mean by consistency. The same rule applies on all current supported OS platforms. Doubling the back-slashes is needed because "\" is an "escape character".

If your OS supports it you may be able to use drag-drop with file icons or you can use file.choose()
