I'm trying to step through some code using browser(), executing one line at a time. Unfortunately, whenever I execute a comment line, the browser exits.
I previously reported a similar problem with blank lines. These problems are a strong incentive to write poor code -- uncommented code with no blank lines to improve readability -- so that I can use browser() without it exiting at inconvenient times. Additional detail: (1) I'm running R inside emacs, with R in one buffer and a file containing code in another, using a macro to copy and paste a line at a time from the file to the R buffer. (2) The browser() call is inside a function. Right now the lines I'm sending to the browser are not part of the function, though usually they are. --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i386-pc-mingw32 arch = i386 os = mingw32 system = i386, mingw32 status = major = 2 minor = 3.1 year = 2006 month = 06 day = 01 svn rev = 38247 language = R version.string = Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01) Windows XP Professional (build 2600) Service Pack 2.0 Locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 Search Path: .GlobalEnv, package:methods, package:stats, package:graphics, package:grDevices, package:utils, package:datasets, Autoloads, package:base ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
