Hello all: I'm trying to use the following code to get commands, comments and results to a .txt file. It only appears to capture comments. When I comment those out with #, it creates a NULL file. Someone seemed to have a similar problem with a mac GUI (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2010-September/253177.html) but the result seemed to be ambiguous. Is there a work-around? Reproducible code and sessioninfo are below. The OS is Mac OS 10.6.8.
