I'm very pleased that path completion is now available in the R shell, but I find it a bit confusing. Please consider the following example: Directory root \ \--Dir1 \ \--Script.R | \--Dir2 Now fire up rkward at the directory root. When calling 'setwd\(\)' path completion will help you to navigate to "Dir1/Dir2". 'getwd\(\)' now results in 'root/Dir1/Dir2', as expected. Now I want to 'source\(\)' 'Script.R' and this is where the trouble starts. While the R console in rkward requires 'source\("../Script.R"\)' to do what I want, path completion doesn't play along: it only offers options startin in the directory root where I started rkward. In my opinion, this is a bug and path completion should consider R's wd as its starting point. Additionally consider the case of two script files script1.R and script2.R. Path completion will upon entering "scr" offer you the two options, but I would appreciate it, if it could also extend the possible path to the maximum of identical characters: "script" in this case - makes working with it much faster. -- Labels: user interface --
