Re: [R] repeat { readline() }

Use tryCatch; try behaves the way it does with respect to interrupts for historical compatibility. luke On Sun, 8 Jan 2006, hadley wickham wrote: On a related note, does anyone know how to exit: repeat { try( readline() ) } The try block captures Ctrl-C.

Re: [R] repeat { readline() }
Ctrl-Break works: see the rw-FAQ and README.rterm. (You'll need a return to see a new prompt.) It is related to your reading directly from the console, so Ctrl-C is getting sent to the wrong place, I believe. (There's a comment from Guido somewhere in the sources about this, and this seems corroborated by the fact that Ctrl-C will interrupt under Rterm --ess.)
