如何在RStudio控制台输出中插入分页符？

Question

Say I print something which is huge, like str("dataset with 100 columns"). This output is too large to see in one shot. Is it possible to get the output in a page like form where whatever fits the screen comes in one shot then on pressing return, the next batch comes up?

Something like "more" in a linux console?

Answer 1

The page command might do what you're looking for:

page("dataset with 100 columns")

If I read the documentation correctly, this should call file.show , which pipes the data to the default pager ( less on Unix/Linux systems).
