You can do this: f <- function(x)x fix(f) # you are now put into an editor and can change the function # when you save the file you will be taken back to R with the new version of f
Alternately, you can ease the use of the source style of operating by hitting up-arrow a few times in the R console to get your last source command so its just a matter of upwarrowing and pressing Enter. One other thing to note is that there are a number of editors that support R syntax highlighting including ESS and gvim and that can ease development too.
