[R-sig-hpc] snow/snowfall: outputting iteration number

hi all,

in a loop, i normally output the iteration number every 10 or 100 to
know my progress.  however, when doing parallel computing using
snow/snowfall, putting the print() or cat() statement into the wrapper
function does not output into the main R console.  does anyone know
how one would be able to output the iteration (argument into the
wrapper function from sfLapply) into the main console?

thanks.

vinh
