I was cursing Matlab again today (what else is new) because the default action for every Matlab command is to spew the result to the console, and one must remember to put that darn ";" at the end of every line.

So I just wondered: was there ever a discussion as to providing some modified version of the "<-" and "->" operators in R to do the reverse? That is, since R does not print the values of a command to the console, what if there were an operator such that


 newobject <p- somefunction()

would do the same as

print(newobject <- somefunction())


Any thoughts?
Carl
