On the Mac Gui that happens with no effort as well as a message saying where
the GUI history file resides. I just checked my .Rprofile file to make sure it
wasn't doing that. I also have a line that prints the data and time:
utils:::timestamp(stamp = Sys.Date() )
Couldn't you just create a template .Rprofile with the appropriate message
printed to console?
