I see 'The R Inferno' being refered quiet often recently. But it was now
pointed by Duncan Murdoch that for example the statement concerning
variables in a for loop is not correct in there (page 62). As I can not
find any information about the book been reviewed by anyone I have a
question: is it reliable resource for learning about R? What is the
authority of Patrick Burns? I would like to avoid spending much time on
learning from 'The R Inferno' to only later discover that it was wrong.
That's the first error I've seen in it. In my opinion, it's a very
useful reference.

Hi all,
Working at the R command line, how do I get strings to display e.g. tab or
newline characters as they should be displayed, rather than as e.g. \n or
\t?
e.g.:
> x="\t"
> x="\t"
> x
[1] "\t"
> print(x)
[1] "\t"
