I did not know about or remember history. I agree that it solves part of my
problem, but I really want to be able to search my code and the things R has
printed in response as a single block of text. I can cut-and-paste it into a
text editor, but I was hoping that there was a way to do

I'm not at all certain what you wish to search: R objects? Past commands?
If the latter, others have offered suggestions. If the former, what
about simply ls()?
Or if you mean something else entirely, please clarify.

Hi Andrew,
maybe history() helps you?
It also allows pattern search (using grep internally).

Thanks, Josh! I'm using TINN-R now, but I have been thinking of switching to
ESS. Though perhaps TINN-R has a similar function -- I had been looking
for consol functions, rather than editor functions.

Hi Andrew,
If you use http://ess.r-project.org/ just go to the R buffer and
type: C-s (CTRL + s) which will let you search through the console.
You can use C-M-s (CTRL + ALT + s) if you want to search using regular
expressions.
Cheers,
Josh

Is there any way to search the console during an interactive session? I've
looked and looked, and can not find one. In some add-on package, maybe?
Sorry to be so basic, but help would be greatly appreciated.
