Object x
is coerced (if possible) to a data frame, and all
non-numeric columns are then coerced to character. The object is
then viewed in a spreadsheet-like data viewer, a read-only version of
data.entry
.
If there are row names on the data frame that are not 1:nrow
,
they are displayed in a separate first column called row.names
.
Objects with zero columns or zero rows are not accepted.
The array of cells can be navigated via the scrollbars and by the cursor keys, Home, End, Page Up and Page Down.
The initial size of the data viewer window is taken from the default
dimensions of a pager (see Rconsole
), but adjusted
downwards to show a whole number of rows and columns.
Invisible NULL
. The functions puts up a window and returns
immediately: the window can be closed via its controls or menus.
