Check if the session is interactive or Rstudio which has implications for parallel output

.check_console_printing(parallel)

Arguments

parallel	Boolean whether chain is executed in parallel mode or not.

Value

Boolean whether output should be printed to console progressively, or saved to file and printed at the end.

Details

When using RStudio and RGui, the parallel output does not show on the console. As a workaround it is captured in each cluster into a file and then read in and printed.
