saving dropbox_credentials in .Rprofile

Hi thanks for your answer on stackoverflow...but am not amazingly keen on having to load an *.RData file to collect the token info, is there a way that all the data can be held in .Rprofile as I think this would produce a much cleaner solution...I tried replicating the output of dropbox_auth() and saving that in .Rprofile but have come across errors. I.e. i included new options for OAuthKey and OAuthSecret which would be called when creating an DropboxCredentials object within a function, but it doesn't seem to work for some reason... here is the function I am using...

db.csv.download <- function(dropbox.path, ...){

    suppressPackageStartupMessages(require(rDrop))

    dc <- new("DropboxCredentials",
        consumerKey= getOption('DropboxKey'), 
        consumerSecret= getOption('DropboxSecret'), 
        oauthKey= getOption('DropboxOAuthKey'), 
        oauthSecret= getOption('DropboxOAuthSecret'),
        requestURL="https://api.dropbox.com/1/oauth/request_token",
        authURL="https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth/authorize", 
        accessURL="https://api.dropbox.com/1/oauth/access_token/", 
        signMethod="HMAC")
    attr(slot(dc,"oauthKey"),'names') <- "oauth_token"
    attr(slot(dc,"oauthSecret"),'names') <- "oauth_token_secret"

    raw.data <- dropbox_get(dc,dropbox.path)
    data <- read.csv(textConnection(raw.data), ...)
    data
}

the dc object should be replicating the output of dropbox_auth() but using static data generated from previously running the function.

Also I saw your commits for the db.read.csv function...for some reason the unserialize part doesnt work for me so I prefer using read.csv(textConnection(file)) as shown in my function...
