[R] options(width=100) ignored on start-up

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all
Is it normal that R ignores options("width"=100) at start-up? Although
liviu at debian-liv:~$ cat /usr/lib/R/etc/Rprofile.site | grep width
options(width = 100)

, R will start with
[Previously saved workspace restored]

> options()$width
[1] 80

Am I doing something wrong?
Liviu
