Thanks Niels but it won't do.. please copy and paste the 2 lines below 
together 
to your console in order to see what I mean:

cat("?"); a<-readLines(n=1)
b<-paste("t",a,sep="")

anyone / any idea to overcome this problem?

Best,
Fatih

Hi Fatih

I believe that readLines(n=1) will do the job. It works
fine from the Windows RGui, but I noticed that it hangs my Aquamacs/ESS
when R runs from there, and a C-g was needed (which may be completely
irrelevant to you).

Best, Niels
