rshcmd: Sleigh Auxiliary Function
In nws: R functions for NetWorkSpaces and Sleigh

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Note See Also Examples

This function is used by the sleigh constructor when starting workers on remote nodes using the rsh command. Note that it doesn't actually start any workers directly: it simply returns the program name and arguments to start a worker on the specified node.

1	rshcmd(host, options)

`host`	Name of the worker machine to be started.
`options`	An environment or list that contains information used to construct the command. See `defaultSleighOptions` for more information.

rshcmdcurrently uses the following options: user, wrapperDir, and python. The user option is the most useful.

A character mode vector, whose first element is the command that will be executed to start the worker, and whose subsequent elements are the arguments to the command.

rshcmd should only be used if ssh is not available, since ssh is a much more secure, modern replacement for rsh.

sshcmd, sleigh

## Not run: 
# Create a sleigh with workers on nodes n1 and n2 started via rsh:
s <- sleigh(launch=rshcmd, nodeList=c('n1', 'n2'))

# Same as previous, but as user 'frank':
s <- sleigh(launch=rshcmd, nodeList=c('n1', 'n2'), user='frank')

# Specify an alternate python interpreter and see the command
# and arguments that rshcmd returns:
defaultSleighOptions$python <- '/usr/local/bin/python'
rshcmd('node1', defaultSleighOptions)
