[R-sig-Geo] R "frozen" in GRASS

[Roger Bivand]

Please do not post HTML.

Please rather use the grass-stats or grass-users list, as this is not an R 
problem, but more likely an issue with your installation of GRASS. The 
GRASS GUI is the source of the error messages. In any case, did you try 
starting R from the command line in the regular terminal from which you 
started GRASS, which should avoid all GUI/Python interaction? Why did you 
use R --save rather than just R; maybe the GUI console is trying to 
interpret the option?
