Open file created by R in an external program


r shell logging

Are you looking for something like this? It works nicely, at least on my Windows box.

## An example temp fileff <- paste0(tempfile(), ".txt")write.table(head(mtcars), file=ff)## Open the file with the program associated with its file extensionsystem2("open", ff)

r shell logging

How about?

browseURL('view.xlsx')

r shell logging

For an solution that naturally extends your attempts, you could use shell.exec.

Documentation

Opens the specified file using the application specified in the Windows file associations.

ff <- paste0(tempfile(), ".txt")write.table(head(mtcars), file=ff)shell.exec(ff)
