Hello,
Sorry for the delayed reply and thanks for your feedback. I noticed this
problem both on Linux and on Windows.
Thanks for leading me to the solution.
I'm on R version 4.0.3 (2020-10-10) -- "Bunny-Wunnies Freak Out".
A common factor between the Windows and the Linux session is Emacs ESS.

The function test as defined below by Jeremie works as I would have
expected for me on Windows so I am unable to replicate the problem there.
R version 4.0.3 (2020-10-10)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)

Hi Jeremie,
Try this:
test <- function() {
a<-readline("selection: ")
return(a)
}
If it starts working, it could be a difference in the way Windows R
handles text input. Both work okay for me on fedora linux.

Hello,
I have noticed a behavior that I don't understand. When I call the
following function from the prompt.
test <- function(){
a <- readline("selection: ")
a
}
> test()
> selection: |
I can only type one character and the readline function exits before I can
press enter.
however
test
7 matches
