Hi Michael,
I wasn't getting how to actually use it from ?suppressPackageStartupMessages example online.
Thank you very much.

You are perhaps not using suppressPackageStartupMessages() correctly if you're getting those warnings: my .Rprofile has these lines:
suppressPackageStartupMessages(library("quantmod"))
suppressPackageStartupMessages(library("ggplot2"))
suppressPackageStartupMessages(library("lattice"))
but produces no warnings (the first does when loading in a clean session without suppressing)
Best,
Michael

Not exactly sure what it means but I do notice that several of the packages that popup at startup as being "masked" appear in this list. Maybe this is the problem? If so how do you take out what you don't need at startup?
