Provides access to a copy of the command line arguments supplied when
this Rsession was invoked.
Usage
commandArgs(trailingOnly = FALSE)
Arguments
trailingOnly
logical. Should only arguments after
--args be returned?
Value
A character vector containing the name of the executable and the
user-supplied command line arguments. The first element is the name
of the executable by which Rwas invoked. The exact form of this
element is platform dependent: it may be the fully qualified name, or
simply the last component (or basename) of the application, or for an
embedded Rit can be anything the programmer supplied.
If trailingOnly = TRUE, a character vector of those arguments
(if any) supplied after .
Details
These arguments are captured before the standard Rcommand line
processing takes place. This means that they are the unmodified
values. This is especially useful with the
command-line flag to R, as all of the command line after that flag
is skipped.
