[R] Edit function

I use a simple-minded, dirty wrapper on edit:
view <- function(x) {
warnopt <- options()$warn
options(warn=-1)
on.exit({sink(); options(warn=warnopt)})
edit(x)
invisible()
}
I say "dirty", because sometimes the output is re-directed from stdout
somewhere else as an unintended side effect, which is why I have the first
sink() statement in there. (Note the help file on sink() advises in numerous
places on using sink()-related calls with care.) I have not been ambitious
enough to make the above version robust and well-understood, as it works
well for me nearly every time, and when it does not, the side effect and
cleanup is neither damaging nor annoying enough.
Also, I have only really used this under Windows R GUI.
Hope that helps,
Bill
