Hi,
I'm trying to understand whether the new source file references can
help me with something I want to do. Let's say I have
foo <- parse(text = "
a <- 1; b <- 2**2
a + b
")
I now wish to recover the sources for the parsed expressions. I can
get them one at a time:
> foo[[2]]
b <- 2^2
> as.character(attr(foo, "srcref")[[2]])
[1] "b <- 2**2"
Is there a better way? Perhaps like the print method
> as.character(foo, useSource = TRUE)
could give all the sources at once?
