sink() doesn't work
We can't really diagnose the problem without a repeatable example (that is, what's in your R file?). But my suspicion is that you've called sink(filename) more than once. Simply type sink() at the command prompt until you get the warning: In sink() : no sink to remove And then all should be well.

Oftentimes I want to make outputs to be displayed on the R console. However, after I execute a program with a sink command in it the R console becomes unresponsive. Meaning that the following occurs in R console:
source("Program_containing_sink.R")
a<-1
a
sink()

R help says that sink() will bring output back to the console but i's not happening. Restarting R fixes the problem. This has been driving me nuts and I'm sure there's an easy answer but after a week I'm still not sure. R 2.15.1 GUI 1.52 is what's being used.
