To control the progress of a function one can consider to use print() to issue a message in the command window. However, using Win98 / R 1.9 or WinXP / R 2.0, this approach is of little usefulness, since all the print() commands are issued at once, just before the control returns to the command window. A test code could be: for(i in 1:10){ for(j in 1:1000){ for(k in 1:1000){} } print(i) } I once ask a linux / unix user and he was not able to reproduce the problem.
