Hi Everyone, I want to get the commands history as a character vector instead of just displaying them, but the function history() just returns NULL. I checked the source code of 'history' and could not find a solution. Anybody has an idea? Thanks! P. S. My original problem is, when a user opens a graphics device like png() or pdf(), I want to know the file name used by this device. I thought history() would help, but it could not.
