Michael:
There's a keyboard shortcut for that:
1. Highlight your multi-line command in the editor;
2. Use [Ctrl-Shift-Alt-C] instead of [Ctrl-C];
3. Paste at the R> Prompt with [Ctrl-V].
You will NOT be disappointed with the functionality of R:BASE in
Windows.

Micheal,
Type your multi line command in R> prompt and let it warp itself, do not
use '+' sign to tell the interpreter / compiler that it is a multi line
command, just press 'enter' at the end of command to execute it.
Secondly, eliminate '+' sign from ur multi line command in R> prompt,
pasted from a command file, it will work.

My first post to this group. Newbie to Rbase X 32bit from the cozy DOS
world, but I have a question about the most basic functionality (or
lack).
How does one cut & paste a multi-line command to the R> prompt to test
the command (or execute it one-off)? I can paste the command, but every
command I've tried throws an error. And then command history corrupts
the formatting of the pasted command on recall.
I first found this copying some help screen examples. But even using
something a simple as
Show +
Variables
results in a spurious error (sometimes Invalid parameter, usually syntax
error).
And this type of mess when recalled from history: Show +Variables
I've seen that syntax executed in a command file works fine, but when
the identical syntax is pasted, it does not work with the errors noted
above.
Testing at the R> is an essential function. But does it work? How?
Thanks for any help.
