Thanks for responding. Problem: When I am typing a command, it does not wrap like it does in this email while typing. As I reach the right border, a horizontal scroll bar appears, and as I keep typing further, the initial part of the line starts disappearing below the left border of the console. So, I am unable to see a long line completely without moving the scroll bar right and left. R output, eg >1:120 (as discussed earlier), is wrapped fine.
I find this difficult because I had been using R in Linux (terminal), now it is necessary for me to use it both in Windows and Linux. My first question was short because it is exactly the same as in the link I'd pasted. The purpose of this question is simply to ask how this can be changed. I understand it's a feature, not a bug. A screenshot of the R console is attached. Notice the $ on the left and the scrollbar below. Hope that's explanation enough. Looking forward to your reply. -----Original Message----- From: Duncan Murdoch [mailto:murd...@stats.uwo.ca] Sent: Sunday, December 13, 2009 16:35 To: Viju Moses Cc: r-help@r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] lines don't wrap. must scroll horizontally to see/edit a long line in R GUI On 12/12/2009 10:34 PM, Viju Moses wrote: > I'm facing this problem on R GUI version 2.10.0 on Windows Vista.

Yes it was, I replied to that message: >> Which version are you talking about? I don't recall Rgui ever wrapping >> input. The config settings affect output. Maybe you're thinking of Rterm? You also don't answer my question. If you are claiming something has changed, you need to tell us how to see the change.
