    ... now why wouldn't they link to that or mention it in the sink help file?

    They didn't exactly hide the fact that it was a type of connection. And there is a link to the connection page. So it ended up being a two-hop link to ?showConnections.

    @Dason -- Probably because closeAllConnections is a pretty crude tool to use for this purpose, as it will close any other connections that are open -- not just the currently open 'sinks'. Commented Sep 11, 2013 at 5:33
  • @JoshO'Brien It's a good point - but I don't think it would hurt if it was at least mentioned in the documentation for sink.

    And for me this has the added benefit of also closing the processes spawned and not terminated by running a foreach loop in RevolutionR on Windows! Double whammy, thanks :-) Commented Dec 28, 2013 at 18:14
