Martin - Type help(scan)
or ?scan to see scan's help file, which includes: quiet: logical: if ‘FALSE’ (default), scan() will print a line, saying how many items have been read. So adding quiet=TRUE to your call to scan will suppress the message. - Phil Spector Statistical Computing Facility Department of Statistics UC Berkeley spec...@stat.berkeley.edu On Wed, 24 Nov 2010, Martin Knapp wrote:
Hi, I'm using R2.8.1 in windows vista and the scan function to load in my data. That works all fine except that I get a message after the scan function finishes. It tells me how many items the function has read. For example "Read 202035 items". That would not be a problem but this is printed in the stderr stream which causes a problem in a different software I run the r scipt in. I have no way to influence this other software. Any suggestions how to avoid this message getting printed. I tried optionsoptions(warn=-1) which obviously dos not work because it is not a warning but options(show.error.messages=F) does not work either.
