I was wondering if it is possible to have permanent assignments in R pretty
much in the same sense that S-Plus works.The reason I am asking this is that
I was  trying to load  a FORTRAN subroutine to R and for some reason it
didn't work and R crashed and I lost everything which I hadn't saved with
save.image() or other similar functions. I tried adding on.exit(save.image())
to .Last() but it seems that if R crashes it doesn't get executed either.

I am not saying that this should be the default behaviour in R but I was
wondering if one could  have this as an option in R as well.

PS. In case it matters, I run R 2.2.1 under sparc-sun-solaris2.9.
