Well, it works of course but for me it is a trick rather than a true
solution. It is because the message does not come from triggered command
but from underlying apparatus. So from my point of view suppressing any
messages from optimizers by 'set' command to silent/quiet/whatever would
be better.
My proposal here would be to modify the effect of "set warnings off"
to set all warnings off -- not just, as at present, to turn off
warnings regarding NAs produced by genr.
(There would be a warning in the doc for this setting!)
Sounds good!!!
My feeling is that neither --quiet nor even --silent as applied to
individual commands should suppress warnings; they're about reducing
or eliminating regular output.
Ok. But printing warnings in numerical methods (like optimizers) might
be seen as some kind of debugging. If so, suppressing any messages could
be an option.
