Additional Information

(per student request) Add Tinn-R fix - the file is called Rprofile.site, on the lab computers it’s located in C:\Program Files\R\R-3.x.x\etc
This line needs to be added to the file in order to get Tinn-R to send multiple line to the R-console:

.trPaths <- paste(paste(Sys.getenv("APPDATA"), "\\Tinn-R\\tmp\\", sep=""), c("", "search.txt", "objects.txt", "file.r", "selection.r", "block.r", "lines.r"), sep="")
