Lets say I have a file on desktop called called test.csv¹. I discovered by accident that if I drag test.csv¹ to an R file, this code is pasted into the R file:
read.csv(file = "../../../../Desktop/test.csv", header = TRUE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
But if the file is a .xls file, only this get pasted into the R file:
/Users/rossahmed/Desktop/test.xls
How can I add a command that, when I drag a .xls file into an R file, this get pasted in:
read.xls("/Users/rossahmed/Desktop/test.xls")

You will need to add a new "File Drop Action" to the R bundle. Have a look at the "read.csv (*.csv)" action in the Bundle Editor (TM2 *Bundle → Edit Bundles.. → R → File Drop Action → read.csv (*.csv))*. To create a new "File Drop Action" use *⌘N → Drag Command.*
