Hi all, is it possible that a R function wait for a keystroke (as the demo() function do) and evaluate the pressed key?
Not really. In general you need to hit Return to get any input into R, and the readline() function is one way to do this. The platform-specific input routines wait for a complete line (indicated by hitting Return) before passing the line onto R.
