Diverting to R-devel.

After looking at more use cases, etc, I think I would like to
the change the default of 'ask' 
from       ask = dev.interactive(orNone = TRUE)   # as of two hours ago 
to         ask = echo && dev.interactive(orNone = TRUE)

since all the cases I've looked which specify  'echo = FALSE'
would also want 'ask = FALSE'.

Comments?
