R-0.63.2 for Windows - some comments

Guido:

I just installed the new version, and tried the bug I sent
you some time ago:

attach(mint1)
Fecha[5]

still bombs (this is using the data file I attached
some time ago).

About the output buffering: I'm not sure the ctrl-W  toggling really
works - 
can see no difference!  Would be nice if there shows some sign
somewhere on the screen, the value of the toggle.

And could be nice to be able to control from code too --- there is
one problem no, when using the example() function --- all
output when the example are computed, somewhat contrary to
the spirit if the computations take at all some time. 

so example() should be able to toggle buffering automatically?

Thanks, 

Kjetil

Here, it works. But, I don't understand why I did this, buffering is
  resetted to 'on' every time a command is completed, i.e., you
  have to type during the execution of the long command. Try
  demo(lm.glm) and then after the standard demo prompt hit Crtl+W.

  I will correct this point and I find interesting the idea to have
  a "sign" of the status of the flag. Since, GraphApp doesn't manage a status
  line, I am thinking about having a menu-item which  can be used 
  to toggle the flag. The status of the flag can be shown checking/unchecking
  the menu item. What do you think?
I am unsure about this. I understand the idea, I suppose.
  But, I don't like the idea to have Windows specific command.
  Comments?
