[R] maximum amount of lines of code to be copy pasted to R console
Dear list members, is there any maximum amount of lines of code that can be copy pasted into the R console? Or some maximum amount of levels of nested parantheses? Whenever I copy paste some big chunk of code into the R console I get errors of missing parantheses etc. even though the parantheses are balanced (i.e. the code runs when run via source or inside some function). Cheers Jannis

Hence don't rely on it for larger blocks.
