Re: [R] can I add line breaks to the paste() function?
Thanks for the help. This solves my problem - I wanted to print out
errors and warnings on separate lines with a single call.
Thanks,
David

Try using cat instead. Then "\n" is the new line character.
E.g.
cat("1st line\n2nd line\n")

Re: [R] can I add line breaks to the paste() function?
Hello, Although on the surface a simple request, I think you need to be more specific. ?paste returns a character vector. The first question is: do you want a character vector of length 1 or 2? It sounds like you're trying to format text for display on screen or on a graphics device. Perhaps you're hoping to use ?cat instead with the sep argument set to "\n" ?
