startup message to stderr

randomee opened this issue · 1 comments

It'd be nice to be able to turn off the library load message "To Daniela Khazova who constantly inspires me..."
Or for it to at least respect the "quietly" option:
library(excel.link, quietly=TRUE)

I have a set of monitoring scripts that look at the exit status, and stderr, and this is messing them up.

(yes, I can use suppressMessages(), but that seems a bit extreme)

I appreciate all of the work you've put in. and work on my previous requests!

Thanks!

Package doesn't know about value of quietly argument. Conventional method for suppressing package startup messages is suppressPackageStartupMessages, so you can use suppressPackageStartupMessages(library(excel.link)). Or, for multiple packages:

suppressPackageStartupMessages({
    library(excel.link)
    library(data.table)
    library(ggplot2)
    })
