The following sequence of commands (for example): >my.data<-rnorm(10000, 5, 1) >my.data fills my pager buffer beyond its capacity. When I type "my.data", the pager displays approximately the bottom 7000 cells of the file, but "loses" the first 3000. Is there a some setting that increases the size of the pager buffer, or is this a limit in the Windows version?

The console scrollback size can be set in the file Rconsole, at the lines # memory limits for the console scrolling buffer, in bytes and lines bufbytes = 65000 buflines = 8000 You've hit the first one: you need about 10 bytes per item. -- Brian D.
