page(iris, method="print")

does exactly what I understand was asked for.

No - not like page(). Page (on windows) gives

while the less() function below gives

Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species
1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa
2 4.9 3 1.4 0.2 setosa
3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa
4 4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 setosa
....

Something like

less <- function(a){
  fn <- paste(tempdir(),"\\dataframe.txt",sep='',collapse='')
  write.table(a, quote=F, file=fn)
  system(paste("less ",fn))
}

could perhaps help you (assuming that you have less on your
computer). I agree that it would be very nice to have a
built-in version...


Like page(), you mean... ?

:-)

(This goes via file.show, so Windows GUI users get a separate
window, I suppose.)

Emne: [R] re-direct to "more" or "less"

Dear list,

sometimes my function generates too much data and shows them on
screen, i cannot view first several lines until program
ends and I
have to scroll my mouse up to get them. Is there any re-direction
function in R to pipeline outputs to "more"
or "less" type functions?
Thanks

mike
