On S-Plus 2000 I want to run sqpe instead of Splus /BATCH
because of speed and because I believe that Sqpe does not
corrupt the positioning of comment lines when writing
the output file. Following Venables and Ripley "S Programming",
p. 254, which essentially says to run the following in DOS
set ALWAYS_PROMPT=T
set SHOME=C:\Program Files\sp2000 whatever
%SHOME%\cmd\sqpe < my.s > my.lst
everything worked fine if I changed SHOME to HOME on Win98se.
I have two remaining questions:
1. Is there a way to place options(echo=T) on the sqpe
command line so as to not need to put this on the
first line of my.s?
2. To make S-Plus use a certain project directory for _Data
does one merely CD to that directory before running sqpe?
Thanks in advance,
Frank
P.S. If anyone ever found a trick to prevent S-Plus 2000
from moving comment lines from their original position in
the script file, when writing to the Report window, I
would also appreciate hearing about it.
