Subject: "deparse" with "nlines" argument produces empty elements (PR#13299)
Full_Name: Kamil Barto?
Version: 2.8.0
OS: windows xp
Submission from: (NULL) (212.33.92.187)
According to the "deparse" function documentation "nlines" is the *maximum*
number of lines to produce. But, when "nlines" argument is supplied, it produces
exactly nlines of result, and the result contains empty elements at the end.
Example:
> deparse(quote(foo(1,2,3)), width.cutoff = 20, nlines=7)
[1] "foo(1, 2, 3)" "" "" "" ""
"" ""
This behavior affects e.g. output of warnings() where "..." is attached to every
call rather than only the truncated ones.
> warnings()
