Override R's assignment of .Last.value

In R, whenever a calculation completes without throwing an error, the result is automatically stored in a variable named .Last.value. Being a lazy typer, I'd like to change the name of that variable if possible, for example to ... Is this possible?

You could use

delayedAssign("..", .Last.value)

That will look up the value of .Last.value when you use ..

5
# [1] 5
.. + 2
# [1] 7

Though it's pretty fragile relying on the value of .Last.value so I'm not sure how robust this is.
