[R-SIG-Mac] Re: quartz graphics in your R-framework

[Jan de Leeuw]

You cannot start quartz() from the terminal window or from
an X term, only from R.app. Is that what you are doing ?

The older version had a Horrible Hack that made it work,
which is

cd /Library/Frameword/R-framework/Resources/bin
sudo /Developer/Tools/Rez   -t APPL Carbon.r -o R.bin

Now start R from the terminal (or Xtertm or Emacs), load tcltk and
you're OK.
