Hi all,

Hi have a series of scripts that print a lot of notes etc. to screen.  I
have to run them on a massive set of input files. The scripts are
self-contained and save the important output to data files in an organized
way.  I don't need the screen output for anything.

Problems:

- If I run the script from the R command line, the output printed to
Terminal got so huge that it crashed Terminal (I was running 10 of these at
once)

- I tried R CMD BATCH, but this just created .Rout files that are size 50
GB and counting.

I suppose I could be a grownup and refactor all my code with print options
that I can turn off, but I would rather be lazy.

So, is there a way to run R CMD BATCH or something similar, and NOT print
the output to screen or to the .Rout file?

I tried:

R CMD BATCH --no-save , but that still seems to save the the screen output
etc. to .Rout.

Thanks,
Nick
