Well, I don't know why you would want to do this to your
eyeballs, but View() would seem to be your friend and
this is probably somewhere in the archives.

You can't set max.print to anything that can't be
coerced to integer (see ?integer) and I think that
setting it to Inf is no longer legal (if ever it was).
[Perhaps options() should generate a warning.]
