I usually just run my R programs at the R command prompt but for my

trying to use R CMD BATCH and send the output to an output file. I
realize I could use sink at the prompt but I'd rather try to do it
this
way
because I know that I used to do this in S+.
So, I wrote a simple one line program called test.R which is below.
print("test of batch\n")
Uh, you don't ack-chewally want that ``\n'' in there with
a print() statement. (You'd want it with a cat() statement.)
Then I did
R CMD BATCH temp.R temp.out
Did you mean ``test.R'' here, rather than ``temp.R''?
If not, what's in ``temp.R''?
temp.out which is shown below then ends up containing all my
loading up
messages and a proc.time statement at the very bottom but not the
print statement itself ? Does someone know what I'm doing wrong. I've
looked around but I can't find anything that answers my question. My
sessionInfo() is at ther very bottom of this email. Thanks.

Well, it works for *me*!
I made a file temp.R containing the line ``print("test of batch")
and then did:
R CMD BATCH temp.R temp.out
The resulting file temp.out contained the ``test of batch'' line
as expected/required.
No problema.
Clearly the R gods don't like you. :-)
cheers,
Rolf
