I too am encountering this problem. When I have a large script, if I select
all in the editor and then ctrl-r to run, if it encounters a stop() function
it simply prints an error message and continues to execute the remainder of
the script, as opposed to terminating execution at that line. The quit()
function exits R altogether, which I don't want. Yes, I could manually
select only the portion of script which I want to run, but for lengthy
scripts which I run repeatedly (generally changing only the name of the file
I want analyzed), this can be quite tedious. It appears that the only
solution is to put most of the code in a separate file and call it using
source(); this has the downside of reducing the clarity of the code -- it's
a sort-of structural spaghetti code approach.
It sounds as though you are talking about the Windows GUI. That's
important, because other GUIs probably have different behaviour.
To run a script up to the first error, do this:
Highlight the part you want to run (or Ctrl-a for everything).
Copy the code using Ctrl-c.
In the console, run source("clipboard") (perhaps with echo=TRUE if you
want to see it as it goes). This is a lot of typing the first time you
do it, but after that, the up arrow can bring back the command.
It would probably make sense for Ctrl-R to do something functionally
equivalent to Ctrl-C, source("clipboard", echo=TRUE) rather than the
current behaviour. Not going to happen in 2.13.x, but maybe in 2.14.x
in the fall.
