readline/history size (PR#211)
...Senior
Version: 0.64.0
OS: linux-2.2.x
Submission from: (NULL) (198.107.133.11)
It appears that the GNU readline history size is limited to 50 entries. This
is apparently occurring because R is not bothering to override the readline
default value (from readline-4.0):
./history.c:59:#define DEFAULT_HISTORY_GROW_SIZE 50
It appears that it ought to be possible to override this from R by setting the
readline variable `history_size' to another value. I request that a
command-line
option be added for doing this. The following is an *untested* patch:
