Roy,

In addition to previous responses, another way of achieving this is to only 
work from scripts. I rarely type anything directly into R, just edit scripts in 
an editor and then execute the entire script (or parts of the script) from 
within the editor.

This way of working provides backup, e.g. if something goes wrong in R. Typing 
directly into the R session is still useful to quickly try something or help 
questions.

Regards,
Rob
