Can you send a reproducible example of the crash (exactly the code +  
how are you running R) and the crash report, please? I'm not able to  
reproduce any crash.

As for terminating the identify, use <Ctrl>+<Click> (Mac equivalent of  
second mouse button). <Esc> doesn't do anything in a Quartz device in  
R 2.7.0. I'll update the documentation correspondingly, thanks for the  
hint.

Again - without an exact example it's impossible to tell whether it's  
a user error or something real.

Thanks,
Simon

How could it? That makes no sense (do you really know how what  
identify does? I'd suggest you read the help page.).
