Dear members,
                             I have a script which I source it interactively. I 
have the following questions:


   1.  If there is an error in an expression, an error message is printed, but 
the execution continues till the end of the script. I am sourcing with echo. Is 
there any way to abort the execution when the first error occurs? This happens 
with R CMD BATCH. If there is an error midway, an error message is printed in 
the output file and the execution aborts. Is there a way to mimic this with 
source()?
   2.  I am trying to abort the execution with ESC key, but again the same 
thing happens: it aborts the current expression but continues on. How to abort 
an R script with source()? I am using RStudio in windows.

I don't see this behaviour.  If I put this in a script:

 print(1)
 stop("here")
 print(2)

then execution stops at the "stop" line if I use source(), or R CMD BATCH <file>, or in RStudio, Run or Source gives the same behaviour. I think older versions of RStudio would have run all three lines using Run, but all the other methods have stopped at the stop() line.
