[Q] R equivalent for Splus get.message()
Are you looking for geterrmessage()? I think an error handler should be writing to stderr(), BTW, but normally the R error message will already have been written there.

I'm trying to get a translation of some Splus code going.
My problem is with the S-plus get.message() function not
existing in R. Is there a replacement or alternative?
ErrorHandler.func<-function()
{
cat("app.terminated\n");
cat(paste("err.fatal",get.message(),"\n",sep=""));
dump.calls();
}
options(error=ErrorHandler.func)
