Yeah, for a file I get echo on both macOS and Linux, but not on Windows. I think the most useful behavior for --slave is no echo at all, maybe? But I might be missing the motivation behind --slave. Another thing is that windows does not have --interactive. Is there a way to run R 1) without echoing stdin, and 2) without quitting on the first error, on all platforms?
