Would options(error = recover) be of some help?
No, that will probably be very confusing. The problem is that the
Windows GUI uses Ctrl-R as a short form of "cut from the editor, paste
to the console", and it will paste the whole text regardless of whether
it works or not. If recover was triggered, it would be sent the
remainder of the script, which would probably lead to a long sequence of
errors (recover is looking for an integer).
