I want to print a long string to the RStudio console so that it does not get truncated.
> paste(1:300, letters, collapse=" ") [1] "1 a 2 b 3 c 4 d 5 e 6 f 7 g 8 h 9 i ... 181 y 182 z 183 a 184 b... <truncated>
I supposed this should be fairly simple, but I cannot figure out how. I tried
options(max.print = 10000)
and looked through the args on the print

What parameter / settings to I have to change to achieve this?

R provides a method paste() to print output with string and variable together. This method defined inside the print() function. paste() converts its arguments to character strings. One can also use paste0() method.

You can opt-out of this truncation by setting the Limit length of lines displayed in the console to:
option to 0 (see the final option in the dialog):
