Please read the rw-FAQ, Q6.3. for a discussion to this very useful
*feature*.
It has been in the FAQ since before 1.0.0.

There is no such version of R, and never has been.

To control the progress of a function one can consider to use print() to
issue a
message in the command window. However, using Win98 / R 1.9 or WinXP / R 2.0,
this approach is of little usefulness, since all the print() commands are issued
at once, just before the control returns to the command window. A test code
could be:
for(i in 1:10){
for(j in 1:1000){
for(k in 1:1000){}
}
print(i)
}
I once ask a linux / unix user and he was not able to reproduce the
problem.
