instead. When you source() a script, auto-printing is not performed. This is explained in the first paragraph of ?source, but not ?sink. If you want to source() scripts and rely on their output (including sink()), you'll need to print() results explicitly.

cat in R behaves similarly to cat in unix-alikes, sends text to a stdout. Usually, that stdout would be a file, but usually in R it is the R Console. I think it might also help to note the difference between cat and print: x <- "test\n" cat(x) print(x) produces cat(x) test print(x) [1] "test\n"
Ivan/Andrew, Thank you both for increasing my knowledge of R. I've not before used sink() and now I can use it properly. The issues are resolved.
