Describe the issue:
Steps to reproduce the issue:
- Write
rnorm(1000, 1. 2)into an editor - Run the code using
Ctrl+Enter
This prints the invalid code-line into the console, but does not run the code and consequently, no error is printed.
Expected or desired behavior:
The code is run and an error msg in the console.
See video: correct code is immediately run and a result printed to the console. Invalid code is just printed to the console and only run once I switch to the console and hit "Enter".

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Ctrl+Enter workflow in Positron with the R expression shown in the issue, comparing valid and invalid input in the editor and console. Trace the editor-to-console execution path; done means invalid input is executed and its error appears in the console without manually pressing Enter.
