Current Terminal (console) width
David, When using native R GUI that does work because the option is checked to do that. See Edit -> GUI Preferences... I'm looking for the R code that will do that same thing so when R is not being run in the native GUI I can ensure that same behavior.

I cannot replicate that on Windows 8 (64 bit or 32 bit):
options('width')
$width [1] 90 # Drag the window to resize, then:
options('width')
$width
[1] 124

Subject: Re: [R] Current Terminal (console) width
Ben,
That options control is about the size of what is printed. I'm looking for
the actual size of the window in real time.
options('width') ## returns 80
resize the terminal window
options('width') ## returns 80
Sys.getenv('COLUMNS') ## returns current window width
resize the terminal window
Sys.getenv('COLUMNS') ## returns a different value
This however does not work on a Windows OS.
Thanks,

Hello,
On a non Windows OS the following command: Sys.getenv("COLUMNS")
Will return the current width of the R terminal (console) but this does
not
work on a Windows OS. Does anyone know equivelant R code when install on a Windows OS?
