Path of file to save code block results

Path of file to save code block results

[Yi Zhang]

Hi All,

The evaluation of code block

#+begin_src R :file img.pdf
hist(rnorm(100))
#+END_SRC

does not output "img.pdf" to the current folder. But if I use "~/img.pdf", 
file will be saved to "~/". Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

YZ

You miss ":results graphics", for example:

  #+begin_src R :results graphics :file img.pdf
  hist(rnorm(100))
  #+END_SRC

Though, why is the behavior different whether you have ~/ or not in the
filename??

Best regards,
