I've added this in R-devel, and also added "ask" at the same time.

Hello,
I have a package for working with Bayesian networks (RHugin - on R-
Forge for those interested). It contains a function RHExample that
does the same thing as the demo function in the utils package except
that it does not display any output in the R console. I use it to
build simple networks in the examples section of my .Rd documentation
files. Anyway, I thought it would be useful if this functionality was
also part of the demo function. The attached diff adds an echo
argument to demo which, when set to FALSE, makes demo behave the same
as my RHExample function. Please feel free to use it if you think it
would be helpful.
Your attachment got lost, but by coincidence, I was wanting an
echo=FALSE argument to demo a couple of days ago. I didn't add it
yet,
because
- I'd like consistency with example(), which suggests putting echo
ahead of verbose
- I'd rather not add a parameter in the middle of the list, just in
case someone has used positional args
- example() has other args not in demo(), i.e. local, setRNG, ask,
prompt.prefix. Should some or all of those be added at the same time?
Since the first two items above are contradictory, I decided this
needed
thinking about, but I haven't taken the time to do that yet.
