QUESTION
I am writing an R code which uses command line tools.
These tools create temporary files which are required for the code to progress, this code will be given to other users to use.
My question is what is the most appropriate way to deal with these files through R specially that other users will be using this code and I don't want to be overwriting user existing files.
Should I create a specific directory to save these files in? And is it a good idea to implement command line tools in an R code?
I am using kentUtils bedToPsl
so a psl file is being created, and then I am using pslMap
so the output of pslMap mapInfo
is also stored in another file.
I am only interested in the results of mapInfo
and not of in the other files created.
