It's possible to suppress all the output but the cat/print/similar in an R console?
I'm using SublimeRepl for Sublime Text and I would love to suppress the echo when executing a line (something like the ";" in matlab/octave), but keeping the output from cat/print or similar commands for obvious reasons.
Any idea?
There are a fair number of R functions that return values by way of the invisible
function. They will cat
some limited set of values, but the returned object will be much larger. See for instance the code of lm
:
> invisible(strsplit(as.character(35600), split="..$"))
> invisible(print(strsplit(as.character(35600), split="..$")))

The R console works by default as a read-eval-print loop and you need to emulate the read and eval segments but then invisibly return a value to the workspace. I thought you might need to need to rewrite the readline
function to get console output blanked out out. And probably need to fiddle with the stdin
and stdout
connections as well. Section 1.6, "Autoprinting" of the R Internals document will be required reading. It made me wonder if you could recompile R with the R_Visible
variable set to FALSE. That section says "actual autoprinting is done by PrintValueEnv in file print.c
"
