It seems like I must be missing something since I haven't been able to find mention of this. Under Windows 7 I'm not getting carriage returns in the output of BATCH files using 2.15.0 (both 64-bit and 32-bit). They are in the startup messages, but not for the real output. Is this on purpose? Pat

This is probably a CR/LF issue - and you editor does not interpret Unix-like line endings correctly. Uwe

The problem is that R writes CR/LF on some lines, just LF on others. I see this in 2.15.0 and R-devel. I'll try to track it down. To reproduce, I put these lines into test.R: x <- 1 x 2 and then ran Rcmd BATCH test.R The test.Rout file has the messed up line endings. Duncan Murdoch
