Hi R developers, On slow file systems with large lists of files, file.exists can take a long time to run. It would be nice if users could interrupt this function. I think it would be simple to add:
https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/main/platform.c, at line 1373, add "R_CheckUserInterrupt();" perhaps every some number of iterations if performance is a concern here.
