You might want to source() a file with those lines rather than pasting them to the console. There's just no way you can retroactively insert text between two already submitted lines. You can do things like this, though {cat("?"); a<-readLines(n=1) "hey" b<-paste("t",a,sep="")} However, there's a catch > {cat("?"); a<-readLines(n=1) + "hey" + b<-paste("t",a,sep="")} ?ada > b [1] "tada" Notice that the "hey" doesn't print. -- Peter Dalgaard Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
