title: Concatenate unwantedly applies max character width
body: <p>I am trying to print some mixed text and variables, all on one line. <code>c()</code> unwantedly forces all character fields to be the width of the largest field, i.e. 12 chars in this case. How to just get simple concatenation?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; print(c('Splitting col',i,'x&lt;', xsplitval),quote=FALSE)
  [1] Splitting col 9             x&lt;            6.7   
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>(I already checked all the SO questions, and all the R documentation, on print, options, format, and R mailing-lists, and Google, etc.)</p>
