[R] do.call(), browser() and large arguments

Hi R users,


i use do.call() to run some functions on large datasets. For debugging 
purposes I occasionally use browser. In the case of large datasets 
supplied to do.call, this however results in R printing huge amounts of 
numbers on the screen. Is there any way to reduce this output?

I found a similar discussion here:

http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/06/02/21727.html

but it stopped before giving me any hint on how to solve the problem or 
whether there is a solution at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Jannis
