I discovered today a curious behavior of the Finder.
If you double click on the R icon directly, on Panther, you'll see
R.bin in the application menu. If you call R via an applescript like
the following, you'll see only R as it should be.
try
tell application "R"
activate
with timeout of 1000 seconds
cmd "print(\"HelloWorld!\")"
end timeout
end tell
end try
Now I'm waiting an answer from Apple...and will let you know.
