[R-SIG-Mac] New User simple question

[Steven McKinney]

Hi Jeff,

R on the Mac looks for a file
.Rprofile

typically in your user home directory.

.Rprofile won't show in the Mac Finder 
file browser unless you do some modifying.
(The Finder hides all files and directories
whose names start with a period)

You can locate your home directory in a
Terminal command window with the "cd ~"
command

CptrName:SomeDir jmorris$ cd ~
CptrName:~ jmorris$ ls -alF

(CptrName is your computer's name)

You should see .Rprofile in the ls output
if it is there.  If not you can make one
and put your customizations in it.

HTH

Just migrated from Win to Mac and have a simple question.  Where the  
heck is the Rprofile file?  I can't find any of the usual folders.
Thanks!
Jeff
