So, I was not expecting R, running with that option activated, to
"volunteer" white lines. :-)
But Simon said `with the documentation'. Not doing what you expected is
not a bug. Can you please point us to documentation which says that
end-of-file produces no output?
This does appear to be deliberate behaviour from
void end_Rmainloop(void)
{
Rprintf("\n");
/* run the .Last function. If it gives an error, will drop back to main
loop. */
R_CleanUp(SA_DEFAULT, 0, 1);
}
and I think it is necessary, as R might well have a partial line of output
queued up for the console. So this is probably `as quietly as possible'.
(While agreeing entirely on the "bug" issue), couldn't we have
fflush() instead of sending a newline?
