Question from Afraz was how to check / view PDF generated by plot*R

Proposed solution 1: use display command?

lisatwyw commented 1 month ago

display command works but need to enable X server

Proposed solution 2: download to local computer for viewing

Alternative to rsync

[username@localmachine]$ sftp <cwl>@dtn.sockeye.arc.ubc.ca
<cwl>@dtn.sockeye.arc.ubc.ca's password:
Connected to dtn01.sockeye.arc.ubc.ca.
sftp>
or using SSH keys for authentication using the -i option:

[name@localmachine]$ sftp -i /home/name/.ssh/id_rsa
<cwl>@dtn.sockeye.arc.ubc.ca
Connected to dtn01.sockeye.arc.ubc.ca.
sftp>
