这是我的。它不会帮助你着色，但我从ESS和Emacs…

我喜欢保存我的R命令历史，并在每次运行R命令时都可用:

在shell或.bashrc中:

export R_HISTFILE=~/.Rhistory

在.Rprofile:

.Last <- function() {
        if (!any(commandArgs()=='--no-readline') && interactive()){
                require(utils)
                try(savehistory(Sys.getenv("R_HISTFILE")))
        }
}

我有一个环境变量R_USER_WORKSPACE，它指向包的顶部目录。在. rprofile中，我定义了一个函数devlib，它设置了工作目录(以便data()工作)，并在R子目录中获取所有.R文件。它与上面Hadley的l()函数非常相似。

devlib <- function(pkg) {
  setwd(file.path(Sys.getenv("R_USER_WORKSPACE", "."), deparse(substitute(pkg)), "dev"))
  sapply(list.files("R", pattern=".r$", ignore.case=TRUE, full.names=TRUE), source)
  invisible(NULL)
}

.First <- function() {
  setwd(Sys.getenv("R_USER_WORKSPACE", "."))
  options("repos" = c(CRAN = "http://mirrors.softliste.de/cran/", CRANextra="http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin"))
}

.Last <- function() update.packages(ask="graphics")

Stephen Turner关于. rprofiles的帖子有几个有用的别名和启动函数。

我发现自己经常使用他的“ht”和“hh”。

#ht==headtail, i.e., show the first and last 10 items of an object
ht <- function(d) rbind(head(d,10),tail(d,10))

# Show the first 5 rows and first 5 columns of a data frame or matrix
hh <- function(d) d[1:5,1:5]
