[R-sig-teaching] Message displayed when opening RData file

[Joshua Wiley]

Hi Francis,

If you are able to edit the previous workspace, what about adding a
local .Rprofile file?  In that file you could put something like:

cat("To see data, input: \n  > data \nin the console. \nTo see data
variable descriptions, input:\n  >desc \nin the console.\n")

in the .Rprofile file

Cheers,

Josh
