[R] Remove leading brackets in print?

[R A F]

Hi, I can't seem to get an answer for this by searching through the
R-help archives:  How does one remove leading brackets in print?

For example,
>print( 3 )
>[1] 3

Would it be possible to get rid of the "[1]"?

Of course the effect is the same without "print", as in,
>3
>[1] 3
but I would only be interested in omitting brackets in printing, if
that's possible.

Thanks very much!
