Description

Clear the R console window or focus on the RGui window using Visual Basic shell scripts.

Usage

clearRcon(os=.Platform$OS.type)

Arguments

os

operating system (e.g., "windows", "unix").

Details

Creates a VB shell script file called clearRcon.vbs or focusRgui.vbs in R's temporary working directory, then executes the script using the shell command.

While clearRcon clears the R console, focusRgui returns the desktop focus back to the RGui window.

These commands will only work on Windows operating platforms, using the system's executable %SystemRoot%\system32\cscript.exe.
