This may be known, but if it is not, maybe it is helpful.
h<- 1:1000; save(h, file=pipe(">see"));
causes a Segmentation fault on my system. The more sensible save(h, file=pipe("cat >see")) hangs. I obviously have everything wrong here, my point is only about suggesting a better error trapping somewhere.
