Hi, I stand corrected. (Should test before I send...)
Here is a reply I received from Ista which -- I think -- did not make it to the list: On Tue, Dec 16, 2014 at 11:32 AM, Andreas Leha <andreas.l...@med.uni-goettingen.de> wrote: > Hi Vikas, > > > Vikas Rawal <vikasli...@agrarianresearch.org> writes: >> >> >> >> For your use case, I would suggest adding print() calls in >> strategic >> places in your long-running code, which will appear in the R >> buffer to >> let you know how it’s progressing. >> >> >> >> I don’t quite understand everything you wrote.

I thought so too, but I don't think that's the case. This affects how org-babel behaves with :results output, but not the behavior with :results value. At least that's the case here with org 8.2.10 Running these two examples: #+BEGIN_SRC R :results value :session *R* a <- 1 b <- 2 print(a + b) #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: : 3 #+BEGIN_SRC R :results output :session *R* a <- 1 b <- 2 print(a + b) #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: : [1] 3 I see >> + + [1] 3 >> for the first one and > a <- 1 b <- 2 print(a + b) 'org_babel_R_eoe' a <- 1 > b <- 2 > print(a + b) [1] 3 > 'org_babel_R_eoe' [1] "org_babel_R_eoe" > for the second one. I have ess-eval-visibly set to t. Best, Ista
