How to create multiple command windows of R on Windows?

Hi there,



I am using R on Windows here. And I got a rather stupid question: how can I
create another R console? It would be nice to have multiple R consoles so
that I can separate different types of commands I use.



Thank you,



Ivan

It's easy.
You can execute R commands under different ``command consoles'' in Windows.

Thanks for that. I seem to be able to only get one R console here though.
Actually that is my question: how to get a different R console?

You can start as many instances of R as you like (except for memory
restrictions, perhaps), hence I do not get your point.

Well, the problem is that I want those console to be from the same session
(i.e., they share same objects etc.). I do not think multiple instances of R
could do it ...

No, there's only one console in each instance.  That's pretty
fundamental:  there is one master loop reading, evaluating and printing,
and the console shows you what's going on there.

You can write your own front end to send things to the console (and
somehow decide what to do when it's busy), but don't expect R to ever
have more than one console.

Thanks a lot for your explanation. That actually makes sense.
