R help - Sep 2008 - Command Prompt Question

Could someone please tell me how to stop the package/function name from
being included before the command prompt?  This started happening today
after I made some changes to my Rprofile.site file and I don't know why.
For example: if I enter example(AIC), instead of just getting the
regular '>' before each output line, I get 'AIC>' instead.
I only want
the '>' and have searched everywhere and can't find an option to
change
this.

 

Thanks

David

AIC> lm1 <- lm(Fertility ~ . , data = swiss)

 

AIC> AIC(lm1)

[1] 326.0716

 

AIC> stopifnot(all.equal(AIC(lm1),

AIC+                     AIC(logLik(lm1))))

 

AIC> ## a version of BIC or Schwarz' BC :

AIC> AIC(lm1, k = log(nrow(swiss)))

[1] 339.0226

That's been normal behaviour for example() for a long time.  See 
?example to see how to disable it.

You'd think that ?example would find it soon enough...
