How to make "buffered output" in R disabled by default?

When I work on the R console, I always want my results to be displayed instantly rather than buffered. Is there any method to turn buffered output off by default, so I don't need to press Ctrl + W every time I start the R console?

It definitely doesn't look like I'm the first one who encounters this, but surprisingly I can find nothing on this issue.

If you look in your R directory under etc, you should find a file called Rconsole, which contains a number of options that govern the behavior of the console. One of them is buffered = yes. Change yes to no and you should be all set.
