Control R environment using modules

Setting up a semi-public repository

<source lang='bash'> mkdir /cm/shared/apps/WUR/ABGC/R/R_libraries/3.0.2 </source> Note: need to do this only once per version; make sure that the folder does not already exist.

Create an R module

<source lang='bash'> mkdir /cm/shared/apps/WUR/ABGC/modulefiles/R/ </source> Note: need to do this only once per version; make sure that the folder does not already exist.

<source lang='bash'> cp /cm/shared/modulefiles/R/3.0.2 /cm/shared/apps/WUR/ABGC/modulefiles/R/3.0.2_wur </source> Note: need to do this only once per version; make sure that the file does not already exist.
