我用mysql数据库做了很多工作，所以马上连接是天赐良机。我只希望有一种方法可以列出可用的数据库，这样我就不必记住所有不同的名称。

sink(file = 'R.log', split=T)

options(scipen=5)

.ls.objects <- function (pos = 1, pattern, order.by = "Size", decreasing=TRUE, head =     TRUE, n = 10) {
  # based on postings by Petr Pikal and David Hinds to the r-help list in 2004
  # modified by: Dirk Eddelbuettel (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1358003/tricks-to-    manage-the-available-memory-in-an-r-session) 
  # I then gave it a few tweaks (show size as megabytes and use defaults that I like)
  # a data frame of the objects and their associated storage needs.
  napply <- function(names, fn) sapply(names, function(x)
          fn(get(x, pos = pos)))
  names <- ls(pos = pos, pattern = pattern)
  obj.class <- napply(names, function(x) as.character(class(x))[1])
  obj.mode <- napply(names, mode)
  obj.type <- ifelse(is.na(obj.class), obj.mode, obj.class)
  obj.size <- napply(names, object.size) / 10^6 # megabytes
  obj.dim <- t(napply(names, function(x)
            as.numeric(dim(x))[1:2]))
  vec <- is.na(obj.dim)[, 1] & (obj.type != "function")
  obj.dim[vec, 1] <- napply(names, length)[vec]
  out <- data.frame(obj.type, obj.size, obj.dim)
  names(out) <- c("Type", "Size", "Rows", "Columns")
  out <- out[order(out[[order.by]], decreasing=decreasing), ]
  if (head)
    out <- head(out, n)
  out
}

这是我的。它不会帮助你着色，但我从ESS和Emacs…

我的大部分个人函数和加载的库都在rfunction中。r脚本

source("c:\\data\\rprojects\\functions\\Rfunctions.r")


.First <- function(){
   cat("\n Rrrr! The statistics program for Pirates !\n\n")

  }

  .Last <- function(){
   cat("\n Rrrr! Avast Ye, YO HO!\n\n")

  }

  install.packages(c('SciViews', 'R2HTML'), dep = T)

plot.str <-c('savePlot(paste(pldir,script,"\\BeachSurveyFreq.pdf",sep=""),type="pdf")')

下面是我发现的两个方便使用窗口的函数。

第一个将\s转换为/。

.repath <- function() {
   cat('Paste windows file path and hit RETURN twice')
   x <- scan(what = "")
   xa <- gsub('\\\\', '/', x)
   writeClipboard(paste(xa, collapse=" "))
   cat('Here\'s your de-windowsified path. (It\'s also on the clipboard.)\n', xa, '\n')
 }

第二个选项在一个新的资源管理器窗口中打开工作目录。

getw <- function() {
    suppressWarnings(shell(paste("explorer",  gsub('/', '\\\\', getwd()))))
}

我有这个，更动态的技巧来使用全终端宽度，它试图从COLUMNS环境变量中读取(在Linux上):

tryCatch(
  {options(
      width = as.integer(Sys.getenv("COLUMNS")))},
  error = function(err) {
    write("Can't get your terminal width. Put ``export COLUMNS'' in your \
           .bashrc. Or something. Setting width to 120 chars",
           stderr());
    options(width=120)}
)

这样，即使您调整终端窗口的大小，R也将使用全宽度。
