Hi,

Currently the R script I have is executed with this command:

$ R CMD BATCH mycode.R

And the output is stored in mycode.Rout.

Is there a way I can issue command from shell (like above)
so that the output is printed to STDOUT?

It's  troublesome to open the "Rout" file every time to debug.

Under a Unix system you could try to pipe the command into tail -f

i.e.,

$ R CMD BATCH mycode.R | tail -f

That should display the file as it gets written.

Buffering may get in the way -- so 'gets written' may be much later than when it is output by R.

Yes, that's quite likely to be the case .. I like your suggestions
below much better - saved away for future reference too.
