So I have a for loop

Instead, it waits for the whole loop to finish and then prints. It's
strange
because my R console seems to have two modes of execution. One where
it will
iterate for each loop and print the message (and where I can easily
abort an
R program with the escape key), and another mode where it doesn't
print for
each loop iteration/just keeps executing even if I press escape key.
I can't
figure out how to enable the first way of execution! Can someone
shed some
light on this matter?
This depends (if I remember correctly) on OS specifics which you have
not provided. Aren't they teaching you to read the manuals (aka
Posting Guide) at U-dub these days?
(perhaps search on :
??"flush console" # ( again, IIRC)
