trouble with tcltk (was RE: [R] trouble compiling R on Irix )

[Liaw, Andy]

Thanks to Peter Dalgaard and Suchandra Thapa for answering my question!

Before I settle on a particular option, I'd like to ask one more question if
I may: Are there any practical advantages to compiling R to 64-bit vs
32-bit?

Regards,
Andy
