That's exactly what I'm using in "pander::evals" to capture all
error/warning/normal messages while evaluating an R command, and to also
capture the results (as R objects), stdout and the printed version of the
object -- which might be useful in a custom environment. E.g. I use this
function to evaluate all R chunks in markdown document and also to store
all R messages run at the rapporter.net API. Please let me know if anyone
is interested, and I will start cleaning up the related codebase and
publish on GH -- although "pander" and "evals" is already there:
