What I mean is how do I get the R compilation or execution process to spit
out a line number with errors and warnings?

I should not have mentioned ESS, that is a distraction.

option(error=browser) is a help.  But it still does not say what piece of
code caused the error.

This is costing me a lot of time chasing down errors in mine and others
code...
