Ah, I see. For some reason the printed output from R's HTTP server
commands does not end with ">". It looks like the program is still
running in the background.
The only way that I am aware of to generate this from R is to use
'scan' to wait for user input. It might be that it's an intended
feature to make clear that R HTTP server session is in progress.
