Loukia,

Please send your replies to the R-help list. I am CC'ing this to the R-help list.

If that is so, then how are you making your R code or R script?
You must be using a plain text editor but we don't know your version of R, your OS, or anything else.
If you are only using an R console you should look in the documentation of your system to find out how to work with plain text.
