[R-SIG-Mac]R Aqua (part III)

[Jan de Leeuw]

If I create /Users/jago and open R.app from there, I am a little bit  
better
off. But still no cigar: the console says

cannot find system RenvironWARNING: unknown option -psn_0_6160385
Fatal error: you must specify `--save', `--no-save' or `--vanilla'

If I go to Contents/MacOS and run

./R --vanilla

from the Terminal, it opens the Aqua window, but it has the old
problem that the window cannot receive events. Also it says

cannot find system Renviron
